Ed,

Please forgive my ignorance, but I have never heard of Corel Chess.
Would you please describe it.
Thanks.

Hey, that's pretty cool. Where did you find out about this? Do you have any other
information (who wrote the search part, etc.)?

Cheers,
Tom

On the web side it says that the chess engine is copyright 1995 by Don Dailey and Larry Kaufman.
These people also wrote the chess engine for Kasparovs Gambit and Socrates 3.
Their latest project was Star*Socrates on some kind of mainframe computer (I think
it consisted of a multiprocessor Pentium architecture). They participated on their
mainframe hardware in the 1995 World Micro Championship and lost the playoff for the
1st place to Fritz.

Hey, the screen shots at that web site really look terrific. Too bad it doesn't
have any information on the actual chess playing part. Looking forward to hearing
about it...

Cheers,
Tom
