You are right, it should be checked more carefully, and I do admit there was not
a vast amount of games played with the K6 machine.

I just noticed when in the endgame, Tiger did not reach the same depth in plies,
as the PIII 500 does. This was a minor observation, and just that, an
observation.

Maybe I should run a match series to see the actual possible results. Could be
helpful to others.
