Hi Stuart,

Chess Tiger for Palm searchs about 500-900 nps (it depends of the phase of the
game). That's 250.000 or 450.000 positions per move in this long game.
In a blitz game it turns to be 2500 to 4500 positions per move. That's by far
much less than Deep Thougth, but in turn Chess Tiger has a very optimized
software as a result of the 10 years of difference.I prefer to compare Chess
Tiger for Palm with the 1992's Chess Machine which was able to beat Hi-Tech
(mainframe) in the Madrid 7th World Computer Chess Championship.
I will replay some of Deep Thougth games to see what Chess Tiger for Palm shows
in the analysis.
