Sure that this rule is what was and still stay in Ed's mind. >Fernando I just found the correct prices on the Gambitsoft/News site, it seems that Millenium chess system will be more expensive than ChessBase engines: The engines ... ... for the GENIUS 6 GUI (see message yesterday) are not for free, they will be DM 98/US $ 59 each, at least such top names as Dave Kittinger's W-CHESS! - 11/4/98 Chess Genius 6 and Shredder 3 prices! The prices for Chess Genius 6 (to be released in December) are set (and you can be sure they are not changed any time soon): DM 198 (US $ 120) new, DM 98 (US $ 59) upgrade from Gold, DM 119 (US $ 72) from older versions. For the upgrade from Rebel Gold just send the coloured paper slip which is in the Rebel Gold cover, nothing else, keep the CD. A nice idea! From older versions we need the disk or CD, though. SHREDDER 3 has same prices: DM 198/DM 98. For upgrades we need old CD 1! Further details will follow soon! - 11/4/98 I think that Bert confused "Genius Gold" and "Rebel Gold" in the text above, but the rest of his message seems clear ... Moritz
