    I think it would be very useful to have a free play board available from the main icons along the top of the screen.
    I've been reading the posts on these forums, when someone mentions some great opening move, and I have to go and find one of my games, open it up, click on analyze board and reset it, just to see what the poster is talking about!
    If I could just fire up a board from there, it would be great!

    What say you all?????

    Well, there is a very simple solution to that problem...just download WinBoard (windows) or XBoard (unix). These are probably the simplest and most user-friendly chess engines - I use Winboard all the time while surfing through the posts on RHP 😉

    You can download both of them from the following site:
