A nice Dual Socket 1366 motherboard can make for a very nice Chess Piece also.

I agree, most of the polls are silly.

Well it was either this poll or the "What is your favourite day of the week to play chess?" poll.....

In future when I make a poll, i'll poll everyone first to see if it is the poll they want.

I'm wondering if Ted has ever made a poll in that place before.

(Look at the ones in the top right of that page)
