Greg's attitude should be, "I don't know about computer chess, but I have an idea, so I'll run it by some experts to see if it can work." Instead, his attitude is, "My idea obviously works, you guys don't know what you're talking about, I didn't come here to discuss it, now who feels like working for me for free?" Either way, he did start some good discussion about FPGAs, so it wasn't a complete loss. -Tom On December 17, 1999 at 02:10:19, J.
