As it has been said before, Elo rating between computers are valid in he
communuty of computers and has a not very clear and perhaps definitively dark
relation with Elo of human players. In fact, there is not any known method to
determinate that relation, until now. Only guesses. If monkeys played chess,
they too would have an elo rating, but I am sure you would not equate the elo of
Sheeta with that of Gary. Sorry for the monkeys
