I was just poking you in the ribs, take your time. As for the year 2000, I've noticed that Prince's song about partying likes it's 1999 just sounds very odd now. I think it's time for Microsoft to jump on your bandwagon and subsidize you, I don't like that odd version of Winchess that they stick there name on. It's more than time that they put out a good Chess program. Both them and IBM stear clear of releasing Chess programs. The competition is too much for them. Pete
