Subject: Would Genius 3 be crushed or not?(on equal hardware, vs. todays tops?)

That's one of the most important questions, for me.
Would Genius 3 ever a) be beaten uniformly in every single game? b)Or atleast
would it never win?
If that has not yet been achieved, is it ALMOST achieved by now?

Can it really be tested? I mean, on equal hardware, AND, where there is
something (optional) which Genius cannot benefit from, then that thing should be
disabled for its competitor too.
Can someone test this with one or two top engines?
I HAD a genius 3, but the two copy protection uses both got lost, after my
computer crashed, or was transfered, so I have none left (is that fair?).
 Also, I don't yet have the 232 tester, which I can easily buy only when I
travel abroad.
Thanks, anyone.
(And this would be a very good test as to how things have improved, besides
rating lists alone, which don't even rate Genius 3 anymore anyway.)
