Hi Sarah, I've had a brief look in the Search Engine to answer another post, & KK was referring, in Dec '98, to the lack of computer analysis while playing person-person (or reviewing a game) in CM6k. I think he was playing "Devils Advocate" rather than actually deriding CM6k, but that went over the heads of his combattants. If that debate helped lead to the analysis features of CM8k then it was a good thing. I was simply being facitious (sp?), imitating the methods of the Kiddies who fought so hard to defend their favourite chess toy. >The CM8K is clearly better in terms of it's features which again AFAIK >was what the reference "toy" was about. Agreed > >Not trying to defend his comments but one last AFAIK >he is CANADIAN !! I have generally found that being Canadian is a Good thing. I particularly like some of the Canadian Television Comedy eg. The News (name?), Trailer Park Boys, Terence & Phillip, .... Cheers, Tina > >Sarah.
