Well I'd like to wonder what "greatest achievement" can mean, apart from the obvious one that everyone thought of. I think I'd consider any decent Chess program written by a good programmer with an open source, which illustrates the various programming techniques clearly so that the novice can learn, and thereby promote the subject to a wider audience and increase the popularity of Computer Chess a "great achievement". I wouldn't dare to speculate about which program deserves the honour of being "first" in this regard. Cheers, Mike.
