Go up one level in this thread

I think it's constructive to look at who's got more resources behind the
development of the hardware in question: Intel or AMD vs. FPGA board makers.
Intel and AMD have FAR more resources at hand to keep their chips running far
faster at running chess software than a specialty board could run its hardware
version.

Brutus is an interesting approach, but it's performance will lag compared with
the top software engines.
