Hi Steve,

>Personally i dont care very much for the Designer series and indeed i only have
>two Designer computers in my collection

I'm also not really fond of their design but there is one thing that makes me
like this Fidelity's line : they have an LCD Display (at least, some of them).

I remember many games played with my CC7 and then with my Par Excellence on a
terrace where I had use my hands to make shadow on the LEDs in order to discover
what the computer had played.

Now my holidays computers are the Mephisto Milano or the Designer Mach III which
both have an LCD display and can work on batteries.

The only inconvenient is that they don't have a compartment to put the pieces...
The Mephisto Chess Challenger has all that but it does not "smell the old time"
as its name could make believe ;-)

LCD Regards,

Alain
