As i go through these games (usually the winner of the ACM that particular year)
i've noticed that the comp's miss things is this due to the search depth or is
this an eval problem?  for example i am looking at Cray Blitz - Belle  12th ACM
1981 and it looks as though 28.QxNb6 is a mistake where Bxh6 may hold a draw.
I am not sure weather or not i can find a win for CB but from what i have seen
games from 1983 and on are going to be a bit more difficult due to the greater
search depths and speed. Except for that Bebe-Hitech Game those two then don't
compare to now even Hitech improved to 200Knps in 1995 but i am not sure if bebe
stayed the same or just stopped competing. Lastly i did notice that the pc
programs in 1994 against Deep Thought were really slow, what can you tell me
about these events or where might i find detail info online? thanks again
