Not really a matter of porting it since Windows basically is a program that runs in Dos and gives you the gui that's so easy to use. It would be more a question of building a new Windows interface is I understand the situation correctly. As to why Ed's company doesn't do that, I assume there are major financial considerations to doing that. They did use a version of ChessPartner for a Windows interface for Tiger, and I'm sure that that's an indication of how difficult it is to come up with a good Windows interface. Lokasoft has the experience in that feild, but I don't think that Rebel does. But they really do make some good looking Dos programs. Pete
