I downloaded the pre-release version 0.95, and was waiting for 1.0 to come  
out.  I looked again, and all I could find was 0.95 on sonata.  This  
version is very slow (compared to the mac version that ran on my macintosh  
SE which is at least 25 times slower than my NeXTStation Turbo...)  It  
also had only 1 computer player... (it had 2, but the other one just sat  
there and never moved)  And this guy is very easy to beat.

I think the interface is really nice, and look forward to its completion.
