Yes, for this tournament there was 40 same AMD computers available.
If everyone wants to be fair we can play all on the exactly same
hardware.... But we know that some people wants to be at the top
at all price. This can be by chosing the fastest hardware.

Kind of silly that again this tournament is first a search for the best
hardware and then to the best software.

Certainly there will be another way to associate programs and hardware
in some
other kind of competition.
