It would probably be possible to compensate the people that ordered J8 before the add was corrected. Depends on the number of people off course. After all, they presumedly planned to make some money on the Deep version as well. From the view of chicken logic it seems surprising that anyone could possibly think that Chessbase would be willing to supply a Deep and not-so-Deep version of the engine at half the price. Mainly because it would obviously undermine the sale of the purely Deep version. No matter how improved it might be. My grasp of legal matters isn't nearly sufficient to evaluate culpability on behalf of Chessbase. But there seems to be a good deal of customer stupidity involved as well. If it looks like a bargain, check it again. Regards, Mogens
