   the subject alone may sound ridiculous,pc programs are so strong that no
table top would seem to have a chance in compitition,but think again.the
mephisto montreux rated 2495 has been beating GMs since it was tested in the
U.S.open in 1996,I am the proud owner of a montreux which was discontined in
november of 98 for unknown reasons,I matched the montreux with fritz 5.0 in a
six game game/30 match which ended in the tabletops favor 3/2. the last game a
battle of beautiful computer tactics ended in a draw.vincent krum from chess
life magazine is the computer analist for the magazine and a certified master
for some 12 years expressed to me that he has never gone past 40 moves against
this tactical monster in over fifty encounters.world computer champion several
times over its no wonder it was advertised in chess life magazine as the world
strongest computer.
                                                         sincerely,confesor
valentin.
