   Hi Netters:

       I would like to buy an electronic chess game that is fast and
   inexpensive (about $75 - $100).  I looked at Fidelity, Radio Shack,
   and some others but they are either slow are beyond my price range.

       Can any one give me pointers to electronic chess games that have
   features such as club level and grand master levels, allow back moves,
    tutor, save a game and so on ?  I'm willing to forego features such as
   self moving pieces, sophisticated lay out, etc.

	Mail order information would also be helpful.  If you are suggesting
   a store, something that has a branch around the NY capital district (Albany)
   would be nice.

    Thanks in advance.

    Venkatesh
