Novag has some kind of cult status among some collectors.  I agree that the
Novag programs plays interesting and often beautiful chess in open positions
(and often very bad chess in closed positions) and that the boards are
beautiful.  But 450 Euro for a computer that plays only marginally better than
the Superconstellation, and cannot be considered rare, that is silly.

Inflated regards
