>Subject: Best chess program for the PC?

I'm not a chess player, but one of the nicest graphical presentations
I've seen is called CYRUS, which is a 3D, EGA version of the game.
You can rotate the board, change the vantage point, etc.  Really nice.
(Again, I can't attest to its "playability").  A real nice aspect is
that it's shareware.  I've seen it on any number of bulletin boards
in the 415 and 408 area codes.
