Well you may be aware that many Computer experts here have said that Hardware doesn't make as much difference when playing Humans, Furthermore how do you explain Rebel and Tigers results, they each match the 2700 performance rating of Deep Fritz on the Quad, and they ran on hardware much slower then the 1200mhz of the SSDF, I believe they used a Pent3 866.
