Concerning Chess Champion V1.0.0.3:

It does claim to play "in the style of Tal", and there is indeed a button (which
switches between human v human and human v computer mode) with a logo containing
"C", "S", "T" and "II", but:

- the quality of play is poor
- I haven't seen it do ANYTHING remotely interesting in a dozen games or so
- I compared its analysis to that for a single position posted by someone
claiming to have the real thing, and it did not match up.

Perhaps someone with the real thing could post a few positions with analysis and
I can compare further and report back?
