I wrote a note in my old copy of BCE concerning Q + NP on the 7th vs Q (diagram 1059 in the new edition). The note says that NP wins, according to Chess Life, July 1985, page 48.

Hi: I use Chessmaster 8000 and it has a peculiar issue that I'm trying to determine if it is my system or the program itself. When the program starts, it offers a "mate in one" puzzle. Every so often, the board is set up like at the start of a game. All the pieces are at their "home" positions. Therefore mate in one is not possible. It does this once about every 10 times.

I want to buy a beginner's chess book for an 11-year girl who likes to play, but who knows nothing but the rules. Any suggestions? -- Ken Blake Please reply to the newsgroup

I am using Chessmaster 9000 but I'm not interested in the 3D chessboards. Is it possible for me to remove the file in which they are stored so that I can save disk space? If so which file(s) should I delete? Thanks, Marco --

And, the sites that offer premium benefits with paid membership, is it manditory for someone to pay at some point so...

Anyone want to help a newbie get started playing chess? I'd love to get a game going by e-mail, especially with someone who could give me some tips and explanations as it goes on. Thanks, Kirk

Is there such a device which lets me save my own games into a .PGN file, or at least lets me save them! I have Chesspad and when the game ends in checkmate, the save game option is still unavailable. Please help! __ __OGONEKO
