SciSys X, an experimental, not yet commercially available dedicated chess computer produced by SciSys Ltd., which competed in the open group of the WMCCC 1981 in Travemünde, West Germany. While the ICGA tournament page mentions Kevin O’Connell as author of SciSys X, it was likely another Philidor Software program by Mark Taylor and/or David Broughton.
