Dead wrong! You do not list the results of DT against any programs/hardware, I agree with that. 1988 to 1994 DT dominated programs on 386 and 486 hardware. With me so far, not P90. Perhaps 90% against 386/486, but not P90. In 1995 DT played a few games against P90, lost to Fritz and drew with Wchess. Your argument is that DT beat everything 90%, not true for P90 systems. Your argument is that DB is 100 times faster than DT thus the 90% victory margin holds because machines today are not 100 times faster than the machines DT beat. Not true. Again, the 90% score was against 386 and 486 machines and 8x700 is 400 to 900 times as fast. Thats a pretty big jump from the machines DT beat from 1988 to 1994. The 1995 hw that fritz ran on is a P90, DT lost and drew against those systems. That is not 90% and 8x700 is about 100 times as fast. Got it. No I didn't think you did. I'll bet you have to have the last word, even if it makes you look silly. :) I may post more on this, or I may not. Ignoring any futher posts is not an admission that Bob has won, just that I am tired of arguing with a fence post on this subject. :) Best Regards, Chris Carson
