Many thanks in advance, Hi Gerald, I haven't tried running chess programs in Virtual PC (in fact, I haven't tried Virtual PC at all), but I am fairly sure most of the Windows chess programs would work. Whether you would want to do so is another question. The speed penalty of running the programs under emulation will be very big. It is likely that the best of the native Mac OS engines will be stronger. Tord
