Chris,
Thoughts on chess games? Would a Deep Blue
emulator/simulator be
vintage? The original computer is more than ten
years old. How fast
would it be on a modern PC
So this thing exists? Zounds.
Somewhere I should have a DOS version of Chess
Master.
I only play using really lousy chess games because I
lose too soon in
the "good" ones.
I just started playing again, and phew do I stink. At
one time I wasn't all bad.
No I guess this has nothing to do with the thread,
and I guess I should have started one concerning board
games in general, but on the topic of Tandy 2000s, a
guy at NASA wrote a Monopoly game for it years ago. I
know no one on this list is going to know what I'm
talking about, much less have an image of it though :(
