Thanks much to Alexander Kure and Vincent Lejeune for identifying an IBM 8-way SMP computer using INTEL processors. Perhaps Deep Fritz 7 will run on such a computer. I hope so. Unfortunately, the Chessbase website said that the system requirements were Windows and Pentium. We can hope that the Chessbase employee, who posted the "system requirements" for Deep Fritz 7, simply erred. Otherwise, the computer Alex and Vincent discuss would not work since that computer seems to use Xeon processors and a non-windows operating system. I sent a query to Chessbase on this but received no response. : ( Maybe Deep Fritz 7 will run on the identified couputer anyway???? The jury is still out, I'm afraid. : ( But another question which is extremely interesting is: "Will Crafty run on the identified computer?" If so, has anybody tried it yet? Bob P.S. Are we still talking 32-bit here? ________________________________________________ ________________________________________________ On September 02, 2002 at 02:04:50, Vincent Lejeune wrote: >On September 01, 2002 at 17:07:48, Alexander Kure wrote: > >>On September 01, 2002 at 15:59:48, Robert Henry Durrett wrote: >> >>>The chessbase website says Deep Fritz 7 runs on computers with one to eight >>>processors. >>> >>>But the system requirements say that the processor must be pentium. >>> >>>Does anybody know where to get a multiprocessor computer using eight pentium >>>processors? >>> >>>If you do, please give the website of the source if you know it. >>> >>>Thanks in advance, >>> >>>Bob Durrett >> >>Dear Bob, >> >>IBM has one: 8 times 1.5 or 1.6 Pentium 4 Xeon from the xSeries. >>Checkout IBM website www.ibm.com >> >>Greetings >>Alex > >Here : http://www-3.ibm.com/software/data/db2/benchmarks/netfinity.html > >"SAP R/3 4.6C SD on IBM xSeries 440 Model 8687-3RX,8-way SMP, XEON MP 1.6 GHz >running DB2 UDB 7.2 on Linux 2.4.18 operating system."
