Reviews of dedicated chess computers are as old as the computers themselves as soon as did they hit the buying market ,Reviews followed in hot pursuit here i quote from one such review "I made the mistake of buying the "Chess Challenger". it's ridiculously weak .they really shouldn't have come out with it. they also made a botch of the keyboard so its hard to follow the moves. Somehow they reversed the algebraic notation so that the files are numbered and the ranks are lettered,if you can believe that! i know i can give it a Queen and a Rook ,because i gave them away in the opening and won. but i can probably give it much more . in the endgame its almost impossible to lose to it." the first member to correctly post the name of the reviewer will receive a Saitek Prisma in the box with manual at no cost and i will incur all shipping costs as well its not in mint condition but it works perfectly i will leave the question open until midnight (EST)Sunday July 17 2005 i will contact the winner by e-mail for his address for shipping i will ship the computer Worldwide The Prisma was programmed by Julio Kaplan and is rated at about 1735 Elo in addition to a pressure sensory board it has an LCD display showing the position http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/cpaa2@sbcglobal.net/detail?.dir=20f5&.dnm=52ff.jpg&.src=ph Good Luck Regards Steve
