Hi Uri,

too bad, that your new computer does not work properly. How unfortunate that you
could not get your computer a bit earlier, since it is always risky to play with
a non-tested system. Maybe some of the super-technicians of the Bar-Ilan
university can have a look? Otherwise don't worry after the tournament you'll
have plenty time to check carefully what is the problem. The tournament is fun,
since you are not competing for the title, right?

regards Joachim
