That's why I think the advertising is more than just a bit misleading: <quote from www.oxford-softworks.com> Chess System Tal was recently entered into the Paris Computer Chess Championship. Here, it was placed an overall 10th out of 34 entrants due to “an almighty bug”, as the author Chris Whittington described it, which affected the program so much that it is incredible that it was able to play chess at all. Had the bug been detected before the tournament, it is possible that Chess Tal would have been overall winner. <endquote> Moritz
