Note that I looked only in comp-human games because I know thet the top programs
of today are more than 400 elo better than most of their computer opponents(Cray
blitz is an exception).

Note only that Fritz3(p90) Wchess(p90) (2 of their opponents) were better than
most of their opponents because most of their games were in the time that p90
did not exist.



It is logical to guess that the average level of their computer opponents in
1992-1995 was 600 elo weaker than the top programs of today with the best
hardware of today in comp-comp games.
