I think that it may be better for the future
if people never report mhz.

It is better to give some numbers based on a test of free chess programs
to describe the hardware.

I think that 2 may be enough and we need
one free program that likes computer A and one free program
that likes computer B.

I know that gandalf likes the A1200 when there are
other programs like tiger earn less speed
from A1200 relative to K6-450.

The question is which free program earns
the biggest speed advantage from A1200 relative to K6-450
and which free program earns the smallest speed advantage from
A1200 relative to K6-450.

I think that we can use the number of nodes
per second of both programs to describe
the hardware that is used and it may give
better information.
