a real collectors item i was offered a NON-WORKING Wundermachine ..about 2 months ago the original owner had the chess engine upgraded from Fritz 3 to Fritz 5 (i think )and this caused the board to no longer respond to the moves made by the program so in effect you were left with a pc program and just a board to make the moves on although at the time i imagine the owner was happy to have upgraded the program he probably never released that he was destroying the value of this very rare bird the changes made to the pc end of the computer in order to accomodate Fritz 5 were irreversible thereby forever destroying the computer my guess ..what could have EASILY brought in 7500 Euro could not be sold for even 1000 Euro Tragic Regards Steve
