>3. I missed that voice of Queen :-)


Okay - okay, I note the smiley ;)) but nevertheless ..... it has been told that
people in the US ( and probably also elsewhere - but the PowerChess program was
developed primarily for the US market) found her voice sexy -thus the choice.

Maybe the notion alone - adding a sexy voice to a program - made me become more
and more irritated about that voice. "Talk with a normal voice," I would think.
"this is a chess interface, not a brothel."

Hmmmmm.... I guess I'm a humorless twit.
