Go up one level in this thread
HI Terry I've decided that I'm going to buy myself a new >table top machine as with my level of playing strength I can purchase a tough >opponent for a very reasonable price. I would estimate my playing strength to be >about 135BCF, any recommendations? well it depends if you want a brand new computer or a used one,the type of move input interface(auto-sensory or pressure or peg)if you need wood or not..etc.etc the brand new ones such as the Excalibur GM will give you a good game(RATED about 1850 Elo) but the book moves the computer will play on its own is severly limited there is a large book in the computer but you have to manually overide the computers choice to get to it there is only one wooden auto-sensory avaialble as brand new but it is quite expensive for used computers there are many on Ebay that can give you a run for your money but price will vary depending on if you want a wooden board or modular upgade ability etc.. if you can post a price range and a better idea of the type of computer you want(Wood,auto-sensory,etc,etc,) i can try to narrow the field down for you a bit.. Best Steve
