CSS is not only dominant, but has a full monopoly, as it is the *only* mag of it's type in Germany :-) (6 issues per year, ca. 60 pages, price: 12 DM !!) I still buy it though in fact it has become a little too 'fritzy' for my likening - no choice :( But don't think they sell an awfull lot of this magazine. The only places you can get it are book stores inside the big train stations - if you are lucky ! They survive from a few enthusiasts (like me :) ) addicted enough to pay any price (see above !). >You can't go to one of these tournaments without hearing a lot of strange >Chessbase/CSS stories.
