I run them on a AMD K6-200 with 48MB RAM and it should favour Hiarcs 6
since Fritz likes Pentium best! I have seen Hiarcs play what to me looks
like missplacing pieces like knights and bishops at the edge of the
board and Fritz taking advantage of it. The games was played at the
speed of 40 moves 20 min. and the rest in 10min as far as I remember. It
was not a very big sample of games ( between 10 to 20 games ) and its
probably not statisticaly sufficent, but I saw this in endgames that
looked relatively equal in 3 or 4 games as far as I remember. Perhaps I
have saved them, so if I find them I will post them!
