      Yes I am back again with another tidbit from ChessbaseCool

       Recently, Chessbase celebrated it's 25th year in style with a big party and a surprise phone call from Kramnik, whom they interviewed.

       Now, current World Chess Champion Vishy Anand has also done the same thing, but not with a phone call, but with a video, which you can find at this link here on their main page. The video is about 9 minutes long and the article contains some great history about Chessbase along with some pictures of Anand over the years going back to 1988. The article is verbatim of Anand's video, but it's still very cool to read and/or listen to. So take a look at the page and enjoy Anand's look back at the 25-year history of Chessbase.  Cool

    They had some interesting articles regarding chess base. I do remember that one of the early versions of the program ran on an Atari ST computer than I used to use. It was fun to see Kasparov working on an Atari ST with some pictures of Chessbase 1.0
