One thing I can tell you is it is no pansy! ;-)

I gave it a go a few years back and was unable to beat it.  Years ago, I did
beat GNU chess many times (I have witnesses!).  But if you can beat the new
versions on modern hardware you're a darn good chess player (or a darn good
anticomputer chessplayer -- or both).

Here is a rough rating list of some computer programs I have put togehter.  It
does not necessarily relate to strength against humans, since the games were
played computer against computer.  But it should give you a rough idea of the
strength:

of thrown together.
