Nothing. I've decided, thanks in part to your reviving the dedicated computers here, to try to get another strong one (to play against my Berlin Pro), perhaps a Resurrection, though I certainly hope to pay less than 1 grand for it (I wanna retire, too..)! I wouldn't mind buying a Magellan because then I would quit getting an itch every time I see an Atlanta for sale (read: Where's the wood board?). I'll post results on the Obsidian as soon as I'm finished, I've done 17 of the 30 BT 2450 positions and played it in 11 games at game in 60 minutes so far. I thought it would be interesting since Novag says it has 2 cpu's in it, but it only scored 2 out of 4 against my GK 2000 (ouch again!)!
