And here Jose is another photo that i am sure you have not looked at either

:wink:


from the Printed Materials Album..

a rare photo of the TSBIV competing against the even rarer Omikron Bogol 5.0

the Bogol was the only chess computer ever sold with the squares reversed by mistake
the lower right hand corner has a dark square instead of a white square

the Bogol is in the bottom of the photo and the TSBIV is at the top

if you look at the bottom computer you can see the board has a white square on the wrong side
look at the position of the pieces


but its true...the photo is not very good
the time i took this photo was back in 1982 and in those days cameras were not very good
:P

here is an even better photo of the Bogol 5.0

This Is The Stuff Legends Are Made From Regards
Steve

PS.and two games ..Bogol 5.0 against the Novag Savant(which can be downloaded for better viewing):

I never heard from Bogol 5.0, also not from V1.0 to 4.0 :wink:

The second photo you post of the Bogol i can only see the wrong squares and a cable and a board! But you can not see that it is a chess COMPUTER!!??

I am disappointed, I thought you were gifted enough to take pictures before being three years old.

Ready to bet that you talked very early regards :wink:

I think he's asking if Brazilian girls are easier to find/seduce/woo than other girls, and if so, that he'd want to be back in Brasil.
