I recently found LG2000 v2.9a a bit of a ?.
Blackdemon at chessnet claims to use this on a PII 233 processor
and my record with Yace against him is not good, something like
lose 50% more than win. Though then I ran 50 blitz games at home
and found Yace won as I recall by 5 or 6.

LG2000 v2.9a is I think a good choice.
