Subject: Want advice on Mac program for children

Author: Wes Groleau

I recently acquired MacChess 2.5 for a Mac IIsi.
I can not understand most of the controls, and the
"Manual" does not help when it says things like,
  Edit
    Preferences
       This will let you change the preferences

Anyone familiar with this able to give me e-mail advice
on how to set the thing up?

OR ....

My two young children have recently learned to play, and
they need an opponent that will challenge them but not beat
the pants off them in twenty move games.  Currently, I still
beat them, but as I haven't played anyone but them in thirty
years, the older one is destined to surpass me very soon.
Can someone recommend a free or CHEAP game for them that will
run on a Mac IIsi?
Or can someone suggest, in detail, the settings I should put
into MacChess 2.5.1 ?

Thanks,
WWG
