Hi Steve

Maybe you feel old, but I feel a little left behind.  Seems like the golden age
of chess was before my time and I've been trying to play catch-up.  There are
programmers here with numerous years of chess programming experience and I am
still struggling to learn the language.  Still I am glad though I didn't live in
that time because it seems chess computers in those days were much more
expensive than they are now.

Some of those old units look, well interesting to say the least.  One in
particular is the Boris Handroid.  It looks like a type writer with a chessboard
where the keys are supposed to be!  The one that I find the most appealing is
the Tasc R40.  How much does something like that run?
