Extrapolating from the postings since Paderborn, it sounds to me like ChessBase
and Siemens might have an exclusive contract for hardware use and chess software
use, respectively.  If this is the case, it doesn't sound dirty: indeed, rather
ho-hum.

Paderborn entrant  Parallel search?     CPU
Fritz  prototype         yes          4 Xeons
Junior prototype         yes          4 Xeons
Hiarcs prototype         no           1 Xeon???
Nimzo  prototype         no           1 Xeon???

Were the boxes for Hiarcs and Nimzo provided by Siemens?
