yes i have the Berlin and Berlin Pro London
different computers then the Tasc of course

the wood used in the Tasc units is possibly the finest wood ever used in a chess
computer
similar to the wood used in the interior of a Mercedes car(which i do NOT have)



 "My Great Predecessors" (I know you

i do not like him as a person but as a player of course he is perhaps the second
or third best player ever(IMO)
i think Fischer first(no chess player ever ravaged the competition the way
Fischer did during the 1971 Candidates tournament matches against Keres,Taimonov
and Petrosian)
then Capablanca and then Kasparov

but i also collect chess books and of course i wanted all 4 volumes
i think he will write 2 more volumes
which volume are you reading?

i think the first was the best so far ,with the last one(vol 4) on Fischer,not
so good


>Note : 2100 was not that absurd, I think the Phantom's program is very close to
>the Par Excellence or the Designer 2100.

this is very true
in fact Fidelity also was involved with the Chessmaster 2100 PC program so you
have even more claim to use 2100
:))
