Thanks, you lose. Wolf's Law (Typo-Nazi's "first to mention" lemma). Your snipping of my refutation of your point tells me all I need to know. Your "theory" seems to omit the fact that HDDs are (relative to RAM) absolutely prehistorically and excruciatingly slow devices, and chess-programming with a-b hasn't progressed to the stage where you can often usefully proceed with results pending. >>Can I have some? > >I think you've had too much already ;) No, we were referring to the near-instantaneous HDDs which you seem to hypothesise about. So, can I have some? Best, A.S.
