It's hardly as narrow as that. I could perfectly well discuss:

- Chessmaster settings
- Chess Assistant/Chessbase database search techniques
- ICCA WC 2006 to be held in Afghanistan
- SSDF ratings/results
- Is an AMD Magicon 302.2 GHz with 512 GAZb (gazillion bytes) better than a
Pentium 52 400 GHz with a 48 DOb (Dorkbytes) cache and 256 GAZb for Fritz at 2
min blitz games on ICC??
- My Fritz version 8.002678094 lost 2 games to Fritz 8.002678093 !!
- Deep Blue is the best in history... Err... no, that's not allowed, sorry.
- What's the best strategy teaching software for a beginner?
- Diep is the best engine in the WHOOOOOLE world, well, top 3 for sure
- No, it's not.
- Yes, it is.
