'The Invicta 104 is the most advanced chess computer in our range,' he read 'So the most or least experienced player will gain hours of pleasure from it. In addition, this model comes with a unique audio feedback device. It will issue instructions and inform you of illegal moves or if the game has reached check or checkmate. Like a polite opponent, it will thank you for the game.'
