The question is if whatever speed disadvantage bitboards
(may) have now is compensated by whatever speed gain the
bitboarders (may) gain compared to 'classic' programs when
switching to 64-bit machines.

Personally, I am certainly going to try Gerd Isenbergs
ideas whenever the first 64-bit machine arrives on my
desktop.

And I do expect it to be superior to what I am currently
doing, in fact...
