Occupation: Furniture Designer

About Me:

I design and build furniture (among other things) as well as teach interior and furniture design. I've spent most of my life in Minnesota, but have traveled a fair amount, including living in Japan and Australia while I was in the Marines. I'm an outspoken atheist, love science and art, am happily married, and have two cats named Tycho and Sophie Brahe. I read a lot, enjoy theatre and live music, really like Brit-coms, but don't see very many movies and almost never watch TV. You can see my rating here. Nothing impressive, but I'm not embarrassed by it. It's an enjoyable game (and a bit addictive) which I want to get better at, but I'm not deluded enough to think I'll ever be incredible at it. My goal is to move up to and stay in the 1600's within six months. More important than that, of course, is I just want to get better. I love to chat during a game, but if that's not your bag, that's fine too.

Chess for Mac

Submitted by Dahan on Jan 11, 2008 7:28am.

Hey all, so give me some personal testimonials here. What's the best (for the money) chess program to use on a mac? I'm more interested in ease of use and good extras than just sheer power. I'm not good enough to worry about what GM it co...Read more »
