my only point was that the housing of the unit itself could be designed a bit better to hide the electronics I feel obliged to clarify: There is no hardware design, Picochess is a software product only. Users buy their own hardware (mac, PC, Odroid or Raspberry Pi computer) and install the software...

Re: Dedicated computers vs PC, PICOCHESS, GAVON

One never switches hardware on the dedicated units, the are what they are and they stay sthe same. On the other hand, Picochess is running on original Raspberry Pi, model B and model I...

Picochess on DGT 3000
The newest clock from DGT makes for a nicer playing experience on Picochess machines. The DGT 3000 has a bit more modern look, wider display and some additional (USCF approved) modes. Love the color.

I believe a set of the beautiful eastern BCE would have been more appropriate for such a prestigious event. I wish. :) However, the games are actually played with Studio Anne Carlton WC set, designed by Danny Weil of Pentagram. A very fine set also. http://www.designweek.co.uk/news/daniel-weil-rede...

Look again. Carlsen's set (on main photo http://www.sochi2014.fide.com) is a horrid mix of low-budget pieces.fourthirty wrote: Regarding the knights, it is the DGT Timeless set.
