Subject: does anybody remember "the sniper"?

aloha!

i just recently chatted to a guy called ed trice, who wrote a chess program
called "the sniper" a long time ago. he claimed that his program had been 2200
on a 7MHz macintosh.
i was wondering if that wasn't a bit much, given that a mephisto genius 33MHz on
a 68030 is rated 2195 on the ssdf list. so... does anyone remember this program
and it's author? is this claim possibly true? or could he have been referring to
USCF ratings which are a bit higher?

cheers
