It's going to benefit those interested in computer programs and the programmers themselves. Not strong human players. I think 99% of all GM's prefer to play against other human beings. Why would anyone want to play against a computer? >Sure you know. If you now play Junior6/K7-800 against some IMs/GMs you get a >rating for this combination.

That's the problem. Computers haven't leraned opening and endgame play. I have to read a book about the sicilian defense and use it in games to improve, while a computer only needs a file called sicilian.pgn. >Sure commercially available so that we get to know how strong a non-special >program is. Then there's another question. Commercially available to whom? If you can buy it, it's commercially available, which doesn't limit the hardware at all. Best wishes... Mogens
