It would be a bit of a lie to advertise Junior as "the engine who >beat Kasparov" since the engine doesn't come with 6-man tablebases. But what if >it did? And they were generated by Junior, not Nalimov? Why do you ask me such hard questions, that's not very nice Russell! :) Okay, conclusion. When you see patzer 2200 Frenzee suddenly play like a divine God, perfect in every aspect, declaring mate in 235. Do you think to yourself, "wow Sune sure is one hell of a programmer", or "he should count himself darn lucky he had those table bases to save his butt this time round". Well I know what I'm thinking, and I'm thinking the same thing about Junior. What is a machine and what is it not, that is a whole different discussion which I would like to avoid going into, or chances are I will end up looking like an even bigger moron :) May this part of the thread rest in peace, I resign in dishonour. -S.
