Subject: A queen handicap every ten years?

In Computerchess magazine ”Modul” from Austria number 3.90 there was a match
related between Portorose 16bit and the chesscomputer  ”Super System lll”  from
1980. They had taken the queen from Portorose, and still Portorose won. And they
asked themselves if it was possible to take the queen from the best
chesscomputer from year 2000 and let it win against Portorose 16bit.

That is really an interesting experiment. Has anybody Portorose or some computer
like that, and want to let it play against for example Fritz 6 without queen?

Here is the match between Portorose 16bit and Super System lll. Portorose
without queen:
