I am interested in learning about a computerized chess board
offered through the CitiDollars program.  It is called the
"SciSys Superstar" with 28K bytes, 24 playing levels, and it
'regularly' sells for $179.00, offered for $99.00 (plus 80
CitiDollars).

I have played Sargon II (Apple II+), Sargon III (AT&T PC6300),
Chess Challenger (the ~$150 version which senses piece movement
by pressing the piece down on the squares), and of course the
UNIX chess program (by Ken Thompson, I believe).

I welcome comparisons, comments, and suggestions of alternative
chess boards at comparable prices.
