Actually all the opponents of Tiger in Massy were running on K7, and they were
running on processors 2 to 4 times faster than the processor used by Tiger.

The list of opponents:

  BBChess, Athlon 1700+ (Tiger won)
  Anmon, Athlon 1600+ (Tiger won)
  Chess Wizard, Athlon 2000+ (Tiger won)
  El Chinito, Athlon 1800+ (draw)
  Pharaon, Athlon 1200+ (Tiger lost on time in a won position, score +6.12)
  ET Chess, Athlon 1000 (draw)

So I consider Tiger running on PII-504 to be undefeated in Massy 2002.

I hope nobody will take offense of this. I think Frank Zibi (Pharaon) is fair
enough to recognize that it is not Tiger but the operator who has been beaten in
that game.
