Subject: Collector's Corner..Rare Chess Computer..Proceed With Caution

Author: Steve B

The Kasparov Blitz(not Plitz as the seller calls it)
only chess computer ever released to contain NO buttons or keys
it is considered fairly rare by collector's

the entire computer works by a system of two dials to access all options and
features
contains the same Julio Kaplan program as seen in the Kasparov Prisma

the danger here is the one missing black pawn,which is far more troublesome then
it seems

the Blitz has a unique "fast board" auto -sensory system that will ONLY work
with the Blitz pieces
normal magnetic pieces will not work

so unless a buyer can manage to replace this pawn (possibly from Saitek) the
computer will NOT work

Caveat Emptour Regards
Steve
