Subject: Macintosh Shogi Program...

        I am using the Macintosh program Pieter (sp?) was talking about earlier
and I really enjoy it. It is hard for me to find other players in Oklahoma.
What I am interested in is others opinions about this program. One question I
have is DOES THE PROGRAM EVER DROP PIECES? There were many times in a game I
was playing last night where the computer could have avoided a touchy situation
by dropping a piece, and he could DEFINATELY have avoided the checkmate by
doing this.
 
        I was thinking about joining the ladder, but I have only played 3 games
(including the one last night) and play terribly. I'm trying though. I would
like to get the book "Shogi for Beginners" that was discussed here but I
forgot the information about it. Would anyone mind resending it to me?
 
Domo. Ja na.
