I would just like to say a few words about the Saitek D++ 10 mhz. Some purist might say that this is not an official Saitek progam and therefore nothing to collect and to a point I agree. This is not a program to collect, but a program to play with ;-). After a 10 game matc against this module in a Renaissance board (60 minutes/game) I must say I am impressed with the attitude of the program. This program is boxing with the gloves off! Of course it is possible to knock it out sometimes, but it is very aggressive and therefore difficult to meet. Like most selective programs it is possible to make speculative sacrifices and win, but it plays fun chess . If you don’t believe me, see Thorsten Czub's very enthusiastic website for the D+ and D++ where you also can download the eprom content and there are also some illustrative games. http://www.thorstenczub.de/dplus.html My advice is: Download it, burn it and play with it! The only regret is that it should have been possible to tune it to 15 or 20 mhz. It would then perhaps be one of the most interesting and entertaining program of all…. The overall result of my mach with the D++? Loosers Corner Regards Erik
