The new adjustment to the SSDF List reflect a more accurate rating for computer
programs, but one of my friend who is only rated slightly above 2425 have
defeated my favorite chess program Fritz 6a three times out of 5 games using my
AMD 500 Mhz with 128 SDRAM, which indicate that in game in 40/2 the best P.C.
Chess program on the SSDF List is not higher than 2400.
