BTW, the other day, when preparing the package with the dead Digital Chess articles, I thought of a proyect that could put us, old dedicated units commnity fans, to work in something nice, funnny and delighting. Kind of History of Chess Computers or perhaps an Encyclopedy. Things like: pogrammers. Whom they were, what happened to them... Companies that existed, what they produced, anecdotes. Computers, of couse: all of them, his peculiarities, the tournaments where they went, succes and failures, etc How the market was constituted, the very very expensive first computers, etc Magazines and brochures of the era. The great age of big lyes. Histories by old fans. How they got stuck, how they played. Chess masters facing the challenge. etc etc There is so much histories, anecdotes, facts, trivia and all kind of delicious stuff. If a dozen of us could work on it, each in a part of it, then gathering all that and mixing and fixing and editing.... I can see a very funny pastime occupation for our next sunset years... fernando
