Hi, 
Could you all accomodate a newcommer?  I don't know for how long has this group
existed.  I just discovered it today.  I would love to get some details about
this GM Chess program.  I saw ads about the CM 3000 but it doesn't seem to give
a listing of the whole game.  The ad says in the battle room mode, it gives a
listing of the past few moves.  It doesn't mention anything about complete 
listing or how it lists in other modes.  This is an important feature for me 
and I would appreciate getting more info about the features of GM Chess.  I am 
an IBM user but not a computer scientist.  Please break the terminology down a
little.

                                                               Mahmoud A. Rezk
