Stefan, this is interesting for me i am waging a two front war here if you read some of Uli's replies to my posts,he is arguing that games against PC's should be considered in the Rating of Res-Fruit05 at lease you an i agree that only dedicated units are interesting to match up :)) Micha (chessguru) proved it with some games. The >same is true for the 32 MHz machine the hardware it is identical with the R30 I >guess and when you run the chess machine with the King 2.2 you have a R30 2.2. I >guess the Chess Machines are really the cross betwen the "good old days" and the >"modern world". They are neither fish nor fowl... yes but i prefer only FISH in your ratings pool :)) > >The crutial point for me here is may more scientific. Isn't it interesting to >see the influence of the speed on the same program? Sometimes the programs >really develop with the speed and I guess it is obviously the case for V11. And >as we do not have any commercial interests, why not? well i guess different collectors are interested in different things this goes to the heart of my collecting philosophy i personally have no interest in collecting modified computers or prototypes most collectors feel this way but its true that some do not and of course i am greatly interested in the ratings of the high-end computers in my collection for the really early computers the ratings are not so important but i am only one man in a far away country and i of course cannot change what has already been decided on so i will go on my lonley thankless way and complain a little here and there :)) Best Regards Steve
