Hi Uri !

I don't share their opinion,

Of all it is known that from the dedicated micros, some (NOVAG) they played
better generally against the humans that others (MEPHISTO).

The form of programming an engine to win a game,
it is completely different if he will face against a
human player, or against a engine.

Another thing is that only be programmed chess, but this is
something different.
