Interesting, and a stronger program than any one of them could produce alone could well be the result. But if you added a human Grandmaster into the mix it would be far stronger still. Otherwise you'd end up in a recursive situation and lose perspective, sort of like flying with an artificial horizon without site of the ground and then finding out your instruments are defective. But then you'd have to put up with GM eating habits... How much stronger are today's programs on yesterday's hardware compared to yesterday's programs? Does Junior 7 on a Pentium 133 kill Junior 4 on a Pentium 133? Etc. If the answer is a clear yes, and it is from my experience, a timeline of the major improvements that make this so would be interesting. (Tablebases, hashing, null-move, etc.) Mig
