Fidelity Excel Mach2 on ebay

I see this one has the "L.A" program. I think there were a few variations
of the same program. Is this one rare? Is it the latest version? Any other
info on it? The seller has only supplied two pictures.
Any info would be appreciated, as I'm thinking of bidding.

Hi Larry,

Yes it should be the last version. Model 6097 and Box is a match. Don't know about complete though the manual is not showing unless it is hidden behind the wrapping at the back of the computer.

Regards

Thanks for the info, Nick. The seller has good feedback and says it's
complete. If it was you or me selling it, we'd show the completeness
in the pictures, including at least one photo of it working. But non chess
comp people just don't understand.

Is ebay bidder "m***o" on this forum? If so, then congrats on a good
purchase. I was going to bid into the low $300's in the closing seconds,
but forgot and took my wife out for coffee. Of course when I got home
the auction was well over. The winning bidder could have bid way higher,
in which case I would'nt have won anyway.
A borderline rare unit gets away.... :cry:
