With tablebases, >it is an instant mate in 25. You're right again. On modern hardware, also Comet fails high after about 20 seconds without tablebases. It seems it's a long time ago that I used this one the last time. On a 386 you would probably need some patience in order to see the fail high (at least ~ 20 Min). I was probably always happy when an equal score was displayed, and then I quit. -:) It seems that this position has become rather useless nowadays. Thanks for your comments, Uli
