Go up one level in this thread


Although we might dream of always getting a new version of a chess
program with a minimum 30 elo point increase, the reality is these
programmers sacrifice "blood, sweat and tears" for a 10-15 elo jump up
in strength.  For me, I'm very happy to witness baby step increments in
playing strength, for one day these tiny steps are going to equal monster
programs capable of defeating the greatest GM's.  So for now, a 10 elo
increase is always a welcome download from Rebel, Fritz, Nimzo, etc.
