well it was rated about 1850 USCF or about 1700 Elo
it contained the famous Prestige program running on 3 Mhz and with the CB9
opening book module built in

playing it would not be so hard
finding one to play..thats the hard part
considered a rare bird and highly desired by collectors of the old dedicated
computers

it was offered for sale  only to the then current(1984) membership  of the USCF
i believe not more then 500 were made
it sold with the printer
