assistant: Hi Bruce:
My CUSTOMERS expect their machines to function perfectly at least 90% of
the time. Amazing what we accept for "normal".
Actually, a good measure of rank in the chain-of-command of a BIG company
is how much above 90% uptime is expected. The formula is:
:    Expectation - 90 = Levels_above_those_operating_the_machine
This (of course) only works for companies with ten or fewer levels of
management :)

I read somewhere that French was one of the few languages that used
descriptive
with the rest being algerbraic, guess the source was wrong.
What was it like working in a chess bookstore?  I've never been to a

that carried many chess books, never mind a chessbook store!

First player to get +10 points, but I think Karpov has draw odds.
Games 11&12 were draws I believe, making the score 7 1/2 -  4 1/2 for Karpov.
I'll be going on holidays July 13-21 to go to the Canadian Open!

With Doctor, yes. That's the name of a special version of Fritz3 to be used
with Chessbase.
It works very well if you use Windows. But the plug-ins don't work with
WinOS2 (and probably with Win95).
I have experienced no real problems.
Serwas, Stefan!

The newest version of ProChess is 2.06, but the author told me that they were
beta-testing a new one at the time. It is much stronger than CMag, at least
on the lower levels, and it is a bit cheaper - but it doesn't look so nice.
