I tried this for only a few minutes on my P133, and LambChop wants to play Bxh2+
although it thinks the score is about equal.  I'll try it for longer tonight.

I let this run overnight, and LambChop (Pentium 133mhz, 16mb hash) found Nf6+ in
about 100 minutes.  The score was something like +1.4 I think.  On a fast PC,
this would take about 25min I guess.  If I force Nf6, the score hits about +0.8
pretty quickly.  The reason it takes a long time to play Nf6 is that it also
likes Bb1.

How do other programs do on this position?
