?? We have a misunderstanding. I suggested that Tiger could use the small book
of 11.7, but I didn't offer to play the match. I don't have the 2 weeks it takes
to play 40 games at 40/2. The best I can do is to play 40 games at 60/60 with a
PIII-500/256MB and a PII-300/128MB, 20 games each program on each machine. This
could be done in 4 nights.
