File:Title Screen From MChess Pro Version 8.PNG
Summary
[edit | edit source]This is a screenshot of the title screen of MChess Pro version 8 taken from a youtube video which in turn is a capture of a Spanish version of the software. The image has been very slightly edited removing a Spanish language prompt to move to the next screen - this was removed for clarity. It meets the fair use guidelines in three ways: first that it contains references to the fact that the program was the world chess computer champion in 1995 which is important to the critical analysis of the program's playing strength, second, it basically contains only text which could be viewed as promotional material for the software, and third, it is a software screenshot relevant to the critical commentary of the now dated nature of the software, and the fact that the chess engine is embedded in a DOS graphical user interface. The image also provides additional information about the author of the opening book for MChess Pro.
