    Info-Montréal vend ses systèmes trop chers. Compares les listes de prix avec ordi en gros de Longueuil. Exemple : processeur intel i7 920 . 400$ info-mtl, 325$ ordi en gros.

    Pour le même prix, tu auras un ordi plus performant chez ordi en gros de Longueuil. Et crois-moi, le service après-vente est fameux.

    Hello Mr.Bevand,

    I have been warned by Mr.Hanrahan to dial down my criticism as of late.No direct personal attack, that is without factual premise, can be construed as malicious.This is not my intent. My intent is to wake up certain individuals that post unoriginally and w/o thought or care of others;ie. that may not want to be associated with the current CFC.For months I have been to the boiling point with a few: look at the predictable trash Gary Ruben throws at me when he doesn't get his way. I am a recent joinee, and have just begun posting messages, as I have internet at home and work now.It seems CFC governors cannot debate rationally here; and treat your site as their vetting grounds. I think you go unappreciated. I anxiously await any uncomfortable decision, if necessary, re. my ability to post here ( in a quieter tone, of course).CFC Governor Ken Craft, or possibly one of his cohorts, may be able to manipulate their own or others posts, it seems, possibly through an internal clock change.I have stated that only you or Mr.Hanrahan can do this, for example, in the case of profanity, for example.

    Is David McTavish going to be allowed to continue to personally insult other posters on Chesstalk?

    Hello Larry, Your are welcomed to post/forward/share this email I received from Yasser Seirawan. Best Wishes, Edward Labate

    Dear Edward,

    No. I do not believe that RJF was the author of “My 61 Memorable Games.”

    My reasons are several-fold. When I met RJF in 1992 during the Sveti Stephan match I got the distinct impression that RJF built walls around himself. That is he was very distrustful of others. He most definitely feared that folks would take advantage of his fame and status. We spoke about his project to write a book about how the K-K matches were all fixed. That every move of every game was scripted in advance. Of course RJF explained that he would have to be author and publisher as well. In short, he certainly would not hand over his manuscript to others.

    Secondly, over the past few years, RJF has explained about his disenchantment with chess and he wanted to promote Fischer Random only. A work that did not promote his variant would be at odds with his stated goal of advancing Fischer Random.

    Lastly, if there was a standard publisher/author agreement, the publisher would have come forth and trumpeted the fact that such an agreement was signed, that monies had been advanced, that checks had been cashed and so forth. Such facts are missing in this case.

    Best,

    Yasser
