> >Look at it this way. Soory Martin,i am not a big fan of making leaping analogies to make ones point its better to stay "on topic" i think btw..Tom M ran the NYC marathon yesterday and i meet with him today >Nah, not exactly. Playing against other dedicated units with programs not >available for PCs is only possible with the dedicated Res. the fact that the engines are available to the PC makes no difference other programs that appear in dedicated computers appear on the PC Dave Kittingers Wchess appears in several of the newer Novag dedicated computers i think the King v2.2 AND 2.5 appears in some of the Earlier Cmaster programs(not sure which one) or if not exactly then close to it why not test take a Sparc and play against the Cmaster 3000 OR 4000 and try to infer the rating for the R40? Same applies to >solving mate/tactics problems and the like since changing the time scale with a >faster cpu doesn’t give you correct results. So here the most efficient way >equals the old fashioned way. OOPS more analogies :)) > >However, simply to get most accurate ratings using the same but faster hardware >for Ruffian, Fruit et al (Res programs) just shortens the time scale, nothing >more. Same amount for both programs! not the same IMO i am a hobbyist of the originally released dedicated computers therefore my interest is only to see dedicated computers VS dedicated computers this is why i object to the use of the CM Shroeder (even though it is similar to the Tasc) in the .info ratings and this is why i object to the inclusion of the V11,a modified computer i guess the old saying we have here in the states will sadly ring true here 'IF YOU WANT SOMETHING DONE THE RIGHT WAY..YOU MUST DO IT YOURSELF" sigh More Testing Ahead Regards Steve
