A Go program that can run on an original IBM PC at 4.77 MHz would necessarily be
at least a little stronger if it ran on an Athlon 2000+, no?  The only way I can
see that not being the case is if there is no time limit per move (or per game
or per set of moves) that is of any constraint to any decent algorithm.  [Even
doing only a static position evaluation should take some non-trivial number of
CPU cycles to achieve a given level of strength.]
