So, do you live in a shack in the backyard to make room for that magnificent collection?

You ought to know that, in future disputes, I will have to side with Mr. Villegas. After all, it is hard to see how a man with all of your riches (of the dedicated computer variety) could be bothered by a crumb or two falling Fern's way.

Envious regards,

Adam

Thanks for sharing the pictures

By the way, one of the two dedicateds I use to own was a Saitek GK model. The other was an earlier Saitek that was also endorsed by Kasparov.

David can tell you just as much as I can. We both were at most of the old CC events, although for years David was the TD and I participated and occasionally was a local organizer if the ACM event was in the Southeast. And of course David participated at least once or twice with a program he and someone else wrote together...
