I posted this on another forum here but not sure if it was a chess forum or a
politics/religioon board. I am seeking the Chess Wizard computer game from I'm
guessing to be the late 70's or early 80's. It was featured in the 1982 film
"The Thing" directed by John Carpenter. You can see it in the first few mins. of
the movie as actor Kurt Russell plays it briefly before dumping his drink into
it. ("Cheatin' bitch.") :-) Any info on where I could find/locate this Game
would be great. Thanks!

Regards,
Todd
