Komputer Korner's Krash list Version 7
1) Chess Wars- playing program with sickening murder scenes that have
nothing to do with chess. playing engine was stolen from GNU Chess without
credit or access to source code
2) IAMGM- a database program that has many "this file has performed
an illegal operation " , and unusable features.
3) USCF Chess playing program that has so many bugs, it seems to be in an Alpha
stage.
4) Monarch 2.0 database- crashes on most simplest of menu features
Very dull and dreary GUI.
5) National Lampoon's Chess Maniac Five Billion (and 1)Animal House chess,
Has vulgar language, partial nudity, but kids love it.
Has a feature that allows it to cheat during the game, if you
let it and it also randomly talks to you throughout the game.
6) Championship Chess- only good features are an ability to play over a LAN and
low price.
7) GM Chess Ultra- bugs galore
8) ALEXS- This is a weak playing program with so little number of features that
it is laughable and the setup feature is unusable.
