The good old times when we only had dedicated chess computers (OK, AI Chess, which became the famous MChess some years later), Mephisto ruled the computer chess world, Richard Lang was still in business and Ed Schroder was doing very well.... Sigh, some things have changed since then :-). I also remember the participants that Worldchampionship in Portoroz: Mephisto Portoroz, Rebel, Plymate/Conchess, AI Chess, Quickstep (well, for some rounds, we all know what happened), Kempelen Atari amongst others. We had 286 PC's that were no match for the 68030 on 60 MHz :-). Rebel used the 6502 with a bit slice machine, speeding it up to 18 MHz. Costs around 800 euro, I believe. Yeah, those good old days :-). Jeroen >I see. I hadn't known you're "in business" for so long, Jeroen. This must have >been in 1987 or 1988, I guess. >Uli
