Does anybody know if there is a public domain chess game out there? I'm not a very good player (rated at about 1200) so I don't need anything too killer. I've got Aztec 'C' and Microsoft BASIC installed on my system if it needs to be compiled. (I'm running CP/M 2.2 if it matters.) Thanks for the info! -- ========================================================================= | Internet: 6600raft@ucsbuxa.ucsb.edu | All opinions stated are mine.| | BITNET: 6600raft@UCSBUXA.BITNET | **Save The Earth** | =========================================================================

It is rated at approximately 1550 (I forgot the exact rating.) Their address is: 330 Central Avenue Fillmore, CA 93015 (805)524-4189 Their catalog costs $3; It's clear form their low prices that it would be difficult to make money and give it away. I have no connection with them other than a satisfied customer. -- -Don Kirkpatrick (donk@dadla.LA.TEK.COM) UUCP: {ihnp4 | decvax | ucbvax}!tektronix!dadla!donk ARPA: donk%dadla.LA.TEK.COM@RELAY.CS.NET
