Subject: The selective search ratings list, just a few observations

After looking at his latest list I couldn't help but think that their is no way
that a comp could get a 2600+ fide rating running on a pentium pro 300 mhz.

Also I happened to notice that the highest three standalones are not sold here
in the us. anymore and that in fact the highest was from 1995. I also noticed
that they ran on 68020-68030 but now we have much faster chip like g3-g4 I don't
know much but wouldn't it be a breeze to port the programs over to g4's.

 Is this to say that we are going backward in strength for standalones. I had
thought that present tech. should be much faster and cheaper.

I have no idea what to make of this.
