I think Eric Hallsworth puts the Amber (same >as Turquoise) program at ELO 1999, but I feel Eric's ratings, at least for >dedicated machines, sometimes seem a little high in comparison with SSDF ratings >and my own assessment of the machines.

The ssdf rating for slow machine is known to be wrong against humans because they reduced 100 elo from the rating of the programs. You should add 100 elo in order to get estimated fide rating and you should increase this number if you are interested in the uscf rating. Uri
