Here is more information from Wikipedia:

Chess960 or Fischer Random Chess is a chess variant invented by former World Champion Bobby Fischer. Fischer's goal was to eliminate what he considered the complete dominance of openings preparation in chess today, and to replace it with creativity and talent. This chess variant emphasizes creativity and talent instead of memorization and analysis of opening moves by using a randomized initial chess position. The name 'Chess960' is due to the 960 possible initial positions.
