Sadly Dr.D
i am ashamed to admit i have slowly been selling my collection ..one by one..piece by piece..on Ebay under several different assumed names
i am down to less then a handful of cheap portable units
this is why i was not even asked to give an interview for that new French dedicated chess computer site in another thread here
Fading Away Regards
Steve
Steve, who do you think you are kidding? We all know you have made
arrangements to have your grave dug deep enough for your entire collection to be buried with you.
the remaining pieces in my collection can be seen in this photo where i can be seen making my final delivery to the local post office for shipment overseas to a Saudi Arabian Oil Sheik
i did keep one small portable unit for myself ..the Novag Solo Deluxe ..which i have resting safely under my warm hat
this included about 90 Doubles of varying condition
this of course does not include the many add-on attachments i also once had .. such as Printers,Clocks and modules
now its all down to one..sad..solitary... hand held unit

Sorry Wael, but I heard from a reliable source that Steve, being fiercely
patriotic, has had all his chess computers modified so they only work
with American electricity, and they can never be adjusted back. So unless
you want to migrate to the USA, you will be out of luck.
best regards,

care to say that a fifth time?
Posting Glitch Regards
Steve
Yeah, thought something like that might have happened. My computer
has been crapping itself lately. A pop up message kept telling me the
link could not be made, or something. I gave up and deleted the message,
or so I thought. A buddy of mine talked me into starting a facebook
account so we could share memories with the old home town crowd. I've
since heard that facebook screws up your computer. Mine's been giving
trouble.
Ok Steve, to make amends I'll send you boris Handroid.
take care...

Yeah Facebook ..Twitter...Utube...MySpace ..Testtube.. whatever
i dont do any of that Social Media stuff
it seems the more time one spends on the internet ..the less one does in the real(physical) world
and those hand-held internet gizmos are getting totally out of control
seems everybody is clutching one these days..
i see folks walking in the street..head down ..thumbs typing away on these things totally oblivious to their surroundings
probably tweeting on Facebutt or something
cant be a good thing that folks are physically in one place but their minds are always elsewhere..somewhere totally unimportant at that moment
Ill Pass Regards

Well the founder of the Mysticum does not work anymore for his project ... and from what I've heard it seems that the Mysticum software has still some glitches ... so I would wait and sit before spending time and money in this project ...
By the way: For an "open project" ... it is nice to make a closed and private community where guests cannot read ... this is real funny ...
