Hmm... yet another game that confirms Bob's hypothesis about the best programs
not yet being strong enough to challenge GM's. I had a strong feeling of deja
vu after going through it. It looked just like the many games I won against
the Super Conny, Mach III, Designer 2265, Rex Chess, Genius, Fritz, etc...
Don't get me wrong -- I did lose the bulk of those, but the occasional win or
two, resembling the one above, would always bring back a dose of healthy
skepticism regarding my initial enthusiasm and estimates of the programs:)
