Good morning guys! Thanks for your help on the "dual 333 processor
question." It helped me in my decision. Now for the operating system:
I have Hiarcs6, Fritz 5, Chess Genius Gold, M-Chess 7.0, Chess
assistant, Bookup, Tasc Chess CD, Chessica, BFTC and CM5500 as well as
about 30 other older versions of these and other chess programs. I
found an article on another chess site that mentioned a list of programs
that would run on windows NT 4.0. Several of my programs were on the
list. What the article failed to mention was -- Is NT or Windows 95/98
the better operating system to run the newest programs on? I am mainly
concerned with search speeds from databases and the actual speed of the
chess engines themselves. Can most newer engines be "tuned" to run
under NT? Will the direction of the chess engine of the future be in
NT?
Thanks in advance for any help that you could give me. I'll share
results of my testing as soon as I can get going here.
