Here's the story behind the photo. A while ago, I bought an old Fidelity Excellence for £10 (approx $15) and after I had bought it I really didn't know what to do with it. It's cheap and nasty and I have better Fidelity computers including a Sensory 12B plus a few more up in the loft. I have always toyed with the idea of canibalising a plasic chess computer and housing it in a wooden casket just to give me something different to do at night. Well now you see the outcome. A Fidelity Excellence in a wooden housing. Now what am I going to do with it. Well, my youngest son Michael (20) suggests I save the wood for the fire and bin the plasic. What I have agreed with him is that I will eventually put it on eBay and if it sells for over £50 he will give me the difference over that ammount and if it sells for less, then I will pay him that difference. Until then, it sits pride of place on my computer desk next to my Sensory 12. AND I'M PROUD OF IT !!! (even if know one else feels that way in the Whitby house hold). Regards and I hope that your soon out of hospital :-)) Bryan
