Disadvantage: we don't get the (for some people important) info on how changing the speed influences the rating - this saves us lenghty discussions about "how many (ELO) points do I gain when going from 90 to 200 MHz". >Split the list in commercial available programs and free programs. Disadvantage: we lose all data about how free proggies measure up against commercial ones (and get even more "What would be Crafty's position on the [commercial] list?" questions). >Throw out not available programs. Might be a good idea (if you mean "not available anymore" and not "not available yet"). >At last split the list between programs and 'Hard'-Boardcomputer. See "commercial/free split". >I think the list will be shorter ALong with length, it will also lose some meaning. --- Shep
