I am both an Addict and a Collector. The Collector in me need one Mephisto Exclusive board. The Addict has acquired nine more. The same with Tasc. The Collector needed one R30, but the Addict needed two more....and for Munchen boards and....and....and...the

Very sorry to hear that! Hope for the best!!

I have checked my collection and have some doubles. That includes Tasc R30 v 2.5 Tasc R30 v 2.23 Mephisto Risc 1. I am considering selling them, but it seems hard to set the price. I realize that the prices have dropped, but does anyone have an idea? I guess it is also a question of import tax when ...

I got inspired and went down to play a game against the old Avant Garde Mobile Master. In the middlegame things got difficult, because the sensor on the square f4 was not responding. Work, work, work. I wonder if the sensors are of a better quality on Elite Premiere? Never had any problems with it. ...

A sad story, indeed. Most of our computers has life-limited components but even if some gets broken, I am impressed by the durability. Especially the Mephistos are build like fortresses (except the MMII-module)! I hope you will find pleasure in playing with your computers again, Steve. After all tha...

Not on Ebay, but for sale in Norway. What a horrible, horrible, horrible way to treat at chess computer. Fidelity chessboards are work of art, but hanging them on the wall

To me this case will be much more interesting than Depp vs Heard :D , but I think chess will be suffering. No matter the result, the focus will be on cheating in our game. I do not understand Magnus' approach. In the best of cases it is a matter of ?! when it comes to the future of chess. We have wi...

Bringing this lawsuit is certainly not the action of someone guilty of cheating ... The Plot Thickens Regards.... Steve I'm not sure that ...

Unfortunately I do not have the EAG 2100, but I do have a Fidelity EAG Mobile Master. I have not used it for a long time, and I am uncertain of the condition (the Fidelity leds and reed switches are not of the greatest quality), but if you are interested, I can test it and see if it works. By the wa...

I think it is difficult to see from the pictures. I seem to remember that it was possible to tell the difference by the way the leds were blinking, but I am not sure.

Next best thing....?

I did not know that the Portorose and Lyon had different display modules. I use the same with both programs.

Are there anyone that remembers (or have the instructions) on how to change the LCD contrast on the Novag Diablo 68000 (Super Expert/Super Forte)? I have messed up the contrast somehow and can´t seem to find how to undo it now. I have a recollection about a small pamphlet in the Novag-box about thi...
