Yes, very old. But the first one I'd call a true chess computer. Very weak but
playing real chess, not just making random moves... ;)


>i am starting to think you do have a small interest..perhaps even a medium
>interest??

Nah. Maybe historical interest. Similar to the interest one has when watching
those old movies about ancient Rome or something. Not really wishing to live
then but expanding one's own horizon...
Or compare it with a biologist. Having books and being mildly interested in bugs
doesn't mean he needs to collect the ugliest, biggest or most rare bugs in the
world... :)

Oldest Wooden Bug in Town Regards,
Martin
