I just tried, the results contain the word primo.
Probably you don't see it because by default it returns the thread where at least one of the posts contains the keyword.

Try to write "primo" in the search field and select "Display results as: Posts"

You can also search just in the subject or the whole body of the post.

Are you trying to find info on the Novag Primo after nobody
responded to your post about it? Try this:

thanks for your help.

I never guessed to use posts, it did yield some results, but not what I'm looking for - i was wondering what your experience were playing with the primo. Like if it does stupid moves or has a human like play style, brilliant end game and such.

Perhaps this is the wrong place to ask such a question as I'm getting the feeling you are just collecting for the sake of collecting and not enjoying playing chess on computers.

On the contrary, we enjoy playing our machines. Speaking for myself
only, I don't have any experience with the Primo, or with any of the
comps listed as related to it, so I can't comment.
