I do not see what it has to do with the old hardware. this position was from my correspondence game and I mentioned it only because mate in 18 was mentioned. The position has nothing to do with Deep blue-deep thought games. Here is the position again for people who are interested Abir Har aven - Uri Blass [D]2k1r3/ppp5/5P2/8/3P1P1q/3P2Nr/PP1Q1K1n/6RR b - - 0 1 The solution begins with 26...Ng4+ 27.Kf1 Ne3+ 28.Ke1 and only finding this main line is a big problem for a lot of program and they usually like 28.Qxe3. Finding the solution after 28.Ke1 is also an hard problem and I did it only by a tree because programs cannot see even after 28.Ke1 a forced mate from the root position. Uri
