Richard Lang visited the world champs in london, despite that there
was not a single board indicating there was a world champs computerchess
there he somehow found it!

I found it very cool to speak with the guy who has been so long dominating
the computerchess world at a time whereas a lot of people still doubted
whether it was possible to create something that would be able to do the
same as the most specialized persons on earth!

He clearly indicated that his genius version from 1989 he considered as his
best version ever.

Considering how Genius dominated at that time i am sure no one doubts that!
