I don't get news anymore, but I think I can send news out.  So please reply
to me directly.....

Computer Chess Reports is making some interesting claims about the Fidelity
Travel Master, giving it a rating of over 2150, and describing it as tactically
strong as the Mach III.

Does anyone actually own this thing?

	How does it play?

	How easy is it to use, especially considering the small board?
	(They don't say, but I think the board is 4 inches square.)

	Have any units failed?

IF the claims are true, then the $80 price tag makes it very attractive.
