I don't know how big are the chances to get a new engines which played directly with ~ 2.600 ELO. We have ~ 250 chess programs but we have thousends of programmers and I hope that more programmers find the way to chess programming. A little sensation for me. Not a big sensation but a little sensation. Fact is, that we all have no chance against the free available programs and I like every of the free available programs and have fun. Not important is the playing strenght for me. Best Frank
