Yes, that would be great. You would also need some modern programs, so that the
comparison mean something to us.

I suggest the following participants:

Old:
 * Gideon (first PC version of Rebel)
 * CM2000 or 3000 or Colossus?
 * Genius2
 * Fritz2
 * An old Hiarcs

Modern:
 * Rebel10
 * CM6000
 * Chess Tiger (I provide a recent version)
 * Fritz5.32
 * Hiarcs7.32

But other suggestions are welcome. We should keep the number of participants low
so it can be possible to have a reasonnable amount of rounds.

And thanks for volunteering!
