You have a very warped perception of what a small download is.    Good Chess
programs that are small downloads are Winboard:
http://www.research.digital.com/SRC/personal/Tim_Mann/chess.html

or, Der Bringer: http://www.reubold.onlinehome.de/

or, if you don't have Winboard installed to run the Comet program, you can
also find the Dos versions of Comet at: http://www.gambitsoft.com/sharee.htm
 or: http://www.in-trier.de/~quisinsky/schach/download.htm

or you can also find the GNUchess program with it's own interface version
4.14 at: http://www.gambitsoft.com/sharee.htm

These are all good _Chess_ programs that are free, _not demos_, and unlike
the behemoth over 19mb Hoyle _demo_, these are all instead small downloads
with _no_ commercial connections.
