Hint: >it isn't close. You have no data of chip test, DT, DTII, 96 DB or 97 DB against P-133's or P6-200. Deep Junior runs on a 8x-700 machine not a 1GHZ single pocessor. You quote data from 10 years ago, 10 years ago was 386/486. The only data you have that is close to what you claim is the 1995 WCCC and DT (DB prototype) lost to Fritz on a P90. I do not care what HW you had, there is no data on the P-133 or P6-200 for you to make any claims. I am still waiting for you to admit Ed is right! You are only digging a Deeper Blue Hole to drown in. :) Best Regards, Chris Carson
