Bertil / Enrique,

Yes the P4 is certainly not a machine for Computer Chess.  A P3 or Athlon would
be better.  In general the dury is still out on the P4  - see
www.tomshardware.com.

Other programs do:

  Gambit Tiger usually ~ 270 kn/s
  Shredder 5 ~ 250 kn/s
  CM 8000 ~ 100 kn/s (poor!)
  Goliath ChessBase I've seen at 1950 kn/s

Apart from Chess I bought the machine for development and it seems great at
least compared to my 450 MHz P4!
