About the manufacturer Saitek Ltd.

taken from a Saitek prospectus 1990
Besides the idea and design of a chess computer you need of course an established chess program in order to be successful. This is where Julio Kaplan shines together with his Saitek-Programmer-Team. He is supported by his highly qualified co-workers. In the chess world Julio Kaplan is a well known figure: 1967 Junior World Champion and since then an International Master with an ELO of 2485 - taken from a Saitek prospectus 1990


Saitek, formerly known under the name of SciSys was formed by Erich Winkler a native of Switzerland. Saitek also manufactured several chess computers for other companies such as Novag and Tandy/Radio Shack. After purchasing Hegener & Glaser (Mephisto) in 1994, Saitek became the world’s largest manufacturer of chess computers. Through cooperation and sponsorship of Garri Kasparov [[1]] which began in 1996 the additional brandname of Kasparov was added to their computers.
