He is not only a good guy, but as far as I know he left his promising career in
maths to dedicate himself fully to chess programming development, so if there is
 a marketing failure of Schredder the fact is specially sad taking into account
his profesional sacrifice. Nevertheless, in these days you cannot sell anything
in this field at almost 200 DM. Even with 4 CD's as extra with endings table
base that's too much money.
