Perhaps one should e-mail them asking beforehand. "Excuse me I'm running Fritz 5
on a PII-400. Is that too much or should I turn off the Turbo button? I do have
a version of Sargon III running on an Alpha 766Mhz but don't know how it fits

You have just won 20 straight games which is contrary to our special Victory
policy. Please restrain yourself in the future or take your winning ways
