Mike, I got the Saitek Cosmos on Oct 30 and it is a very beautiful unit. The peg
pieces are big and the squares are too. The controls seem easy to use and the
LCD is big and the rotating display can show a lot of info. It has the Bronstein
timing on blitz and tournament levels. About it's play the Cosmos pays
particular attention to defense but will attack when the opportunity is ripe.
You have got to watch your back when playing the Cosmos or you will be blasted
into oblivion.
The Cosmos instruction book is very adequate and is about 6" by 4".
I strongly advised you to buy the Cosmos instead of software were you don't have
a prayer (IM's and GM's have nothing to worry about) . That is all for now.

Kind regards,   Frank Nelson
