>What interesting developments did we have regarding dedicated chess computer and
>collectibles in the past year here?

i would have to say the dramatic rise in value of practically any wooden chess
computer and Robotic computers made 2004 a year to remember.

other highlights:
1)a number of well known collector's started selling their computers and in some
cases,entire collections(perhaps as a result of the rise in values)

2)noticeable increase in the amount of posts here on the CCC relating to the old
computers(still far less then even 10% of all posts,but way up from previous
years, where the post percentage was less then 1 in 1 Gabillion)

3) first year in recent memory where there is at least a glimmer of hope that
something really new is on the horizen

and i second that emotion!
