Still confused, I read no matter how fast the hardware was, the experts said the
program would not stand a chance because all programs have the same positional
weaknesses that no amount of processing power can cure, so a prepared human and
no less a strong 2600+ Grandmaster will exploit these holes and make the program
look silly. At least that is what I have read for the experts here at CCC.
