what it the ratio between the speed of the machines for every program
(it can be different because I read fritz5 love the pentium)
what is the ratio between your machine and Thorsten machine?

it was claimed that cstal earn more from the time factor
did you try to do matches with slower rate to see if it is truth.

I want to know because I use the computer for hours when I sleep
and if I believe
CStal can win fritz5 in slower rate than maybe I buy Cstal.

my only experiment about the nunn match between fritz5 and
Junior4.6 showed that fritz5 earn from time
Junior4.6 lost 6:2 in the first 8 games(1000 seconds per move)
I have no autoplayer and I did the match on the same computer

Mark young's match also proved that fritz5 is good at slow rate
but if there is a program that is better than fritz5 (maybe only at slow
rate)
I want to know
(not from Thorsten because his results are different than other results)
