( I already put this in response to the call for links, but I thought
I'd also post it under this title for people looking for Macintosh software)
Here's a list of 18 links for freely downloadable Macintosh
chess software (freeware/shareware/demoware).
Notes: Some of these are demos - wasn't sure whether you wanted/not
Some of these are FICS/ICC interfaces - ditto
