SteveB Fidelity Question

Is the Fidelity Mini Sensory which I have presently next to me the same program as one of the earlier Chess Challengers that Ron Nelson produced?
Also if you can say, have you been in touch with Ron lately about future Excalibur products?
World Cup Regards
Bryan
What's my next move? - to the fridge for another beer !!

Yes
Nelson programmed the Mini even though the Spracklens were on board just about the same year the mini was released..they programmed the high-end Weltmiester models and Nelson the lower end models
Sadly i haven't had contact with Nelson for almost 2 years now
i think he finally retired ..probably had something to do with Excalibur basically being out of the chess computer business(not sure what the new Co. EB Excalibur is going to be doing by way of schachcomputers)

that Mini can take 3 add-on Modules Regards
