I am of a very similar background to Jon Dart, but bow down respectfully in homage to Arasan :) I used my first PC when I was 18 (a Commodore PET), did some FORTRAN at university (theoretical physics degree) then programmed in it, csh and C for a couple of years. Then I became a systems architect and wrote not one jot or tittle of code, apart from the odd Word or Excel macro, from then until now (11 years) at work. After bad experiences with Linux, to some regret, I went back to Windows, taught myself Visual C++ (very interesting - the world has turned through 180 degrees since I last wrote code) and have decided to start a chess engine which will be called "thebrix". I have the suspicion that, like Botvinnik's (mythical?) program, thebrix will be "in the design phase" for N years ;) Alastair
