Re:      2) "Rebel 10: A Review" by Komputer Korner

Thanks for the detailed review. I often find things out about a program that
I've forgotten or missed from the KK reviews. Just a couple of quick comments.

>1.It is impossible to install to any drive other than the C: drive

I've had no problem installing to any drive from the Rebel installs. They have
all been about the same. You have to "disagree" with the data, then select your
drive. I have installed on two machines to the D drive without a problem.

> 2.There is no icon except a plain DOS disk icon supplied for a desktop shortcut.
There was a pretty one for rebel 9 - Maybe Ed can add one like it again :-)

>5.When switching sides by forcing Rebel 10 to make your move, the names don't switch in the name boxes.
I don't know if that is a bug or a feature. It does let you know what side you
started on :-) Although other programs such as Fritz do change the color and
name.

>  11.The user still can't resign nor offer a draw.
True, but you can save the file to a database and enter the result as 0-1 for a
loss.....

Again, thanks for your detailed list of features, which I always like to review.
