Good question. Would be interesting for the SSDF guys to take some old programs, but on _new_ hardware, to see where they fit. Of course it might be a bit embarassing to some as well. BTW, in passing, no version of wchess or zarkov ever played deep blue, much less drew with it. I think Zarkov might have drawn deep thought once, but it wasn't running on a PC at the time, it was running on a souped-up HP-PA system that was at HP headquarters, if I recall correctly.
