But perhaps running two programs on one machine may not be a fair representation. There may be an unfair allocation of machine resources for one program vs. another. For example, it is my understanding that earlier versions of Chessmaster hogged far more machine resources than CM8K. I would suggest that for valid outcomes, running programs head-to-head should be done on two IDENTICAL machines.
