9...Qe7 any program today would never play this move. This was the game i was
refering to in my earlier post. I am not sure if it was an opening book error
but it shows that todays programs are atleast better than 1973..

if you put any program on analyse at blacks 32nd move you'll see that Kf7 is a
better move which doesn't lose a pawn at the least it may hold a draw.

Belle in '83 was 2208elo well hiarcs in '00 and probably any of the top software
is around 2400elo.   I plan on looking at Hitech's games next then pre 1995 Cray
blitz as to me with 1.5 million nodes a sec it won't find errors without
spending an hour on each move.
