So you might as well give Crafty equal hardware (PII-333) to what Fritz was using, because Crafty runs the same speed either way. At least for the 'real' Crafty (non-Chessbase version) it works this way. If you gave Fritz the faster machine, it would go 160K NPS faster, but Crafty would be going the same speed as before. Now who has the real hardware advantage?
