It is called the "SciSys Superstar" with 28K bytes, 24 playing levels, and it 'regularly' sells for $179.00, offered for $99.00 (plus 80 CitiDollars). I have played Sargon II (Apple II+), Sargon III (AT&T PC6300), Chess Challenger (the ~$150 version which senses piece movement by pressing the piece down on the squares), and of course the UNIX chess program (by Ken Thompson, I believe). I welcome comparisons, comments, and suggestions of alternative chess boards at comparable prices. Please reply by mail to: ...!houxm!hou2a!59224me or ...!houxm!genesis!mei Mark E.
