As is well known, the Tasc R40 is one of the rarest computers ever made Legend has it that less then 20 pieces were made with less then 10 sold in addition, it remains even today, the strongest dedicated computer ever released for sale (although the Pheonix Resurrection should eventually surpass it) i know of 5 collectors that own this precious chess computer and i have heard of a 6th owner but the information as to the 6th owner is vague at best. Today it became known that one of the R40'S in existence has become defective and apparantly cannot be repaired sadly the company that can make repairs to the Tasc units(Niggemann) has declared that they cannot repair it this is a sad loss for the collecting community and one hopes that this particular R40 was kept in the best of care and not mistreated in any way RGod Speed Regards Steve
