I think because when we talk about things like this we just ask strait
questions. Sometime it may seem that there is no feeling in the question, and it
may seem to be blunt, and this may seem like a harsh critiscm. I think maybe
Harold is viewing it like that.

I said a few qustions about chess partner, what I thought was wrong with it and
what I thought was needed, they were blunt comments, but I got a reply from the
programmer and he gave me my answers. they were blunt comments, but not meant to
offend anyone. I have seen reviewers give more harsh comments than what I have
read here. No use pussy footing around things. Just say them. As long as you use
the right words when describing things you do not like, then what is the
problem.

All I am worried about is that using chess parnter as the rebel GUI, from what I
have seen of CP, will give me less than what I get with my current Rebel 10 DOS
program. All this crap about 2D boards are minor and not really the point IMHO.
I just want what I got now with Rebel in a windows interface, and not less.
