I like engines of all strengths. I play against Rybka and take my beating. I play against mid engines and hope for better. I play against Golem or ChadsChess and take my revenge for my previous beatings. There is something to say for every chess engine. Chess engines that play like patzers can be among the most interesting. I get a kick out of it when they blunder (sometimes, they don't know about e.p. capture or underpromotions or whatever and don't see your move coming). And we need a fresh supply of new weak ones for a large number of reasons. I imagine that the enthusiasm for chess engines of all types is still strong. I guess that if you check download statistics, you will find that damas and thinker get about the same number of pulls. I just put a damas zip on my web site today and its getting pounded like a madman.
