Better hardware alone, most probably will not help. I estimate, that Yace would
need around 34 plies to see a positive score (this depth will not be reached in
years with todays computers. The only hope would be, that really huge HTs could
speed this up very much - but I doubt it). Better software, indeed may help -
see for example Paul's and Gerd's interesting posts.
