ok - the misunderstanding is maybe now solved. maybe
we can all come back to computerchess now.

but - as you can see - it is not easy to work with/for 2 opponent
companies :-))

i remember paderborn-championship when i had to operate CSTal against
Hiarcs. this was a very difficult situation for me, since
i know both mark and chris very well and even worked with chris
on cstal before the championship. on the other hand had to
do at work (schach-niggemann) with mark in the same time.
we got an operator and a machine for mark.
but the game was very difficult for me because i liked BOTH programs
much.
