Great, we got a nice UNIX OS now... so maybe someone has ported one of their CPSC assignments (Go) over to an aqua gui?
Has anyone seen a gui version of go floating around for OS X? With a computer opponent... I am tooo afraid to go on the international servers...
And for those interested, go is a board game... sort of the asian equivilanet of chess. Is it from Japan or China?

Yeah, I was going to mention Goban (as asmodeus did)
To answer your other question: Go was originally Chinese. Another Asian game similar to chess is Chinese Chess, or Xiangqi (not to be confused with Chinese Checkers). Some dude taught me how to play Xiangqi last year, and it's really neat.

Does anyone know if this game uses Japanese 1st level and/or 2nd level rules or not?
Thanks.

There's time enough, but none to spare.
