Thank you.

Actually I'm not so sure about this. Just a few minutes ago I saw a woman and
two kids running around here. Don't know who they are, or where they come from,
but they pretend to know me...

Rebel Century still supports the Autoboard.

Fritz, Hiarcs and Nimzo don't. I'm not sure about Genius 6 / 6.5, but Genius 98
doesn't support it either. The same for Chessmaster, as far as I know.

I don't know about MChess, I couldn't find anything about the support of the
Autoboard, when I searched for it a few minutes ago.


Greetings,

Heiko.
