We do not know all the details.
It is important to know if tiger played on a regular pc or on a palm and even if
it played on a regular pc it is possible that there was a virus in the relevant
computer that made tiger ran slower.


Another surprise is to see the name jester here.

I think that it is not the real jester that is a weak winboard program from USA.

Programmers should at least check the list of winboard engines before they
choose a name for their program.
