Maybe here, I am not completely sure ==> http://www.eskimo.com/~rwb/junk/
Sargon III
One of the last brute-force chess programs for the PC, probably. Written by Dan
and Kathe Spracklen, IBM adaptation by Kevin E. Leavelle in 1983. Read some old
unprotection advice for hard disk owners, which is completely irrelevant unless
you own the original, or download the game. Estimated rating 1859 on a 386-25.
