Subject: Using a lot of computers against kramnik(is it possible?)

Suppose program X is playing against kramnik.

I think that it may be a good idea to generate a program that generates a tree
and sends all the positions in the tree to people who want to help the computer
in the match(I will call it the main program).

The people give program X to analyze the position and return score and depth to
the main program.

The main program is using all the information about scores and depthes to decide
about the best move.

Yace or Gandalf can be used for this task because they are not preprocessors.
Most programs need to be changed in order to be used in this way and there
should be an option to analyze position A when the root position is known as
position B.

I think that in this way 1000 pIII800's can be clearly better than an SMP
machine.
Am I right?
