Also during >the era of the 486, computers were beating masters on that hardware, at 5 sec a >move a k6-450 is playing about the same as a 486 at 40/2? Am I wrong? 5 secs/move on a 450 is something like 40/2 on a 12.5 MHz machine. I'm just a 2100 player, and I'd expect to win under these conditions. Just my opinion, but it's based on my own results against various programs through the years. --Peter
