Hi Steve, I fondly remember playing my first game against a program called ZXChess II for the Sinclair ZX80. This program was written by a company called Artic computing and ran in 16K of RAM, this company actually sold a chess program which amazingly played fully legal chess in only 1K of RAM. Bearing in mind that the ZX80 used some of that 1K for system variables and flags etc. this chess program was actually less than 1,000 bytes in size! I used to own a Fidelity Excellence Chess machine which I really loved and very occasionally beat, I now own a Novag Sapphire which beats me ad nauseum. I have since played countless different chess programs and managed to lose at least one game to virtually all of them. I have however learnt from my mistakes and can repeat them exactly! Terry
