It's my feeling that at their current strength, the existing products are not quite as attractive to better hobby players or lower graded club players as they could be. I've avoided adding any Excaliburs to my collection at present because they aren't quite competitive enough with my other machines. I know Ron Nelson can write a good program - he just needs more horsepower under the bonnet.
