I will simply put it this way if you are rated between 2200 to 2300 the next
version of chess Tiger for Palm will give you a great fight. We can never
compare the Speed of a normal P3 800 Mhz to a Palm overclocked to 54 Mhz, but
the strength of Chess Tiger using this small Gizmo is all that matter. Currently
I'm running the Beta2 of Chess Tiger 14.9 against Gnu Chess v5.02+ which is
estimated to be around 2225 on a Celeron 433 Mhz, and is doing great so far.
