Go up one level in this thread


  I have the Mephisto Exclusive board, but rarely use it in favor of
>either my PC (for high power and the latest software, like Shredder 9), or my
>Palms (M130 and T5) with Hiarcs, Genius, Tiger.


this part of your post says it all
your post really has very little to do with the Resurrection ,it really is your
personal opinion that you prefer todays stronger PC programs over dedicated
units.a personal taste that many here share

i for one would never play chess on a PC screen in favor of an Exclusive board
the Resurrection will be the highest rated chess computer ever made
the much desired Tasc R30 can also be beat by todays PC programs
but that does not stop them for selling for close to $2000
and every time one of them comes up for sale it sells like wild fire

for me,the point is not if other programs  can beat it..the point is if I can
beat it
some of us here actually play chess ourselves and not just pit one prog against
the other


the VERY BIG  deal is for those who will not play chess on a PC screen with a
mouse ,keyboard,surge protector,etc etc and prefer to play chess on a real board
with real pieces

and the Resurrection wlll be the strongest dedicated computer to do that
plus it will be upgradeable via the internet right into the module and it will
contain two programs

playing the Resurrection will be a dream come true(at least for me)
