As Enrique wrote, we have explained this so many times before it's sad to go down that road again. It doesn't matter which ELO the opponents to a new entrance have. We can play 200 Tiger 12 AMD K6-2 450 games against P90-programs, or we can play 200 games against AMD K6-2 450 programs. We will get approx. the same ELO. It's in the system made by Arpad Elo. Tony
