What you write is very interesting. But I think you are losing much money when
not making a Fritz or Genius engine now. You can profit from their big markets.
I will buy a Rebel engine for DM 100 immediately because I think it is good. But
I do not want the DOS-Rebel. There is no force to market with Chessbase or Ossi
Weiner. You sell the engine yourself. If Chessbase do not tell you their
interface threaten them to do it for Ossi instead. Beautiful competition.

Sell the engine at the same price as your GUI. Then you never lose money.

Keep up the good work.
