I ran it through the Altavista Systran page, which did a poor job of tranlating

P-Conners wins as first computers a GM tournament

Computer P.ConNers wins 10.Lippstaedter GM tournament after IN hatch the McShane
the program course obligation 1998 with a fantastischen to stop had finalkept in
track still been able, gave its defeat in the 10.-round in the long run the
excursion to the victory of P.ConNers - with full name parallel control LED
Conspiracy NUMBER search. The program for the optimization of the parallel
calculation, written by Ulf Lorenz, can fall back to 160 processors clocked with
450 megahertz and is thereby approximately fifty times as fast as 450 megahertz
a processor - this might correspond to the calculation of approx. 3,000,000
positions per second. Thus the Lippstaedter tournament might enter history - for
the first time a machine a tournament (Eloschnitt 2521) can win category 11.
Second - and winners of the first price - became GM Zbynek Hracek (CZE) before
the lady world champion of many years GM Maja Tschiburdanidze (GEO), which
finalkeeps in track in a strong GM novel Slobodjan still overhaul could. But
also for the Lippstaedter the application was worthwhile itself again, because
Dr. Andreas Brenke could with 3.5/9 a IM standard protect prematurely and could
soon after Stefan pain Meier and Heiner Matthias of the 3.Lippstaedter IN
become.
