I know it.
I did not say it about stobor and I guess that stobor is going to beat
everything at 2 hours/40 moves if it can search only 1G n/s against 2M nodes of
seconds of Fritz or Junior.

I do not have stobor and it is only a guess.

I simply responded to the poster who claimed that a very old program like
machack or an even older program can beat the top program of today with 10G n/s.

machack played already in 1967(see page 64 of how computers play chess) and I
guess that the evaluation of machack or at least the evaluation of older program
than machack is not better than tscp.

Sorry if someone got the wrong impression from my post.
It was not what I meant.
