Sorry but it isn't *correct* to say the same advertising was done for 5.0 from 432h. I don't mind if you choose not to believe what is written. But to lead others to believe the same claims were made is not only wrong but IMO damages Gandalf unfairly. http://www.rebel.nl/gandalf.htm Also it is true Gandalf was in the Chess Partner interface but it also should be noted that in fact the version 5.0 was distributed by Rebel and that the version 6.0 will be distributed by Lokasoft. I say that simply as a way of stating that whatever claims are made about either version are made by different companies and people. >Don't get me wrong, I hope all the best for Steen Suurballe and Dan Wulff.
