chess computers

[Explorer-8]

I would like to buy a travel chess computer because I am flying from Manchester Airport to my holiday destination on Monday, and waiting at the airport is so boring. I don't have enough time to buy one on-line, but whenever I search on-line, there are no stores or shops (apart from Chess Direct in London) that sell them. No games shops, no Woolworths, Smiths, Tesco, Toys R Us, or any other shops that I have looked in sell them.

Are there any shops in Leeds or Manchester that sell travel chess computers?

Try Dixons in Manchester Airport. JD

Very few firms now make or sell chess computers. That's because most people who want to play chess electronically purchase suitable software for their laptop or Nintendo Wii, rather than buy a device which will only play chess.

However, all is not lost. Argos sell them:
