Go up one level in this thread


I don't have a TASC board (I wish I had bought one when I had the chance:), I
have the Saitek, Kasparov auto board instead, which I bought about 2 years ago
from ICD.  I have it packed away, and hardly use it. (I suppose I'll use it
again when I relocate to New York).

Yes, I have also bought into this continual upgrading world, and I'm waiting on
Fritz 5.32, and the Millenium Genius6. (and maybe I should get EOC, and the new
million base, and Chess Base Mega, and...and - Oh yeah, I need a new big Hard
disk too).

I admit it, I'M NUTS!!  I don't know why I/we do it.  I try to post here,
speaking about this obsesion, as some kind of threapy, but I don't know if its
doing any good. (Would a 300 hundred pound man, weigh 400, if he didn't talk
about his problems?)
