Hello everyone i downloaded Chess Genius 2 last night.  I must say that anyone
who likes genius this is a must. I find the interface that comes with Shredder
is rather poor with a slow mouse response. However this interface is fast and
simple. For strength i tested it Against good old hiarcs 7.01 30 min each. I
expected Hiarcs to destroy genius as this is a old program. After Three games 1
draw two wins for genius. You can imagine my shock. I know everyone This is not
enough to draw hasty conclusions, although it shows that even old GENIUS2 can
hold its own to newer commercial programs. Maybe this shouldnt come as a
surprise as it was this same program that beat Kasparov himself in in 1994 at an
intel speed tournement. The game was sd in 25min. Genius won with black. So to
anyone not happy with the new genius programs check this out! I think you will
appreciate genius,s active playing style.
