Hi Jarek, I think the problem here is that there are too many, therefore
your question would take way too long to answer.
take care and enjoy the hobby regards...

Hum... I think Larry is right, just too many to list them all. But some on that long list would include:

Conchess Escort
CXG Sphinx Dominator
Fidelity Champion Chess Challenger
Fidelity Excel 68000
Fidelity Excel Mach II, III, IV
Fidelity Sensory Chess Challenger 8, 9, Super 9, Super 9 Deluxe
Hanimex HCG 1900
Mephisto Atlanta, Berlin, Berlin Pro,
Mephisto modular with a variety of modules.

Well, there is a partial list to get the ball rolling. Which ones did I miss?

Feeble memory....regards,
Dave

I just received the Lexibook Chesslight.
How much led-light do you need?! :-P

Shine on regards,

Hello Peter,
Excellent additions. I suppose if Jarek is looking for one plastic board to own, the Mephisto Modular may be the most flexible, readily available, reliable and is not expensive to purchase.

Dave

Dear Chess Computer Experts,

thank you for answers.
Of course, you are welcome (and kindly asked) to add more machines.

Another computer that I found:

Saitek Kasparov Blitz
