I have heard that the games posted in ccc cause some discussions about
the strength of cstal dos v289. this amuses me.
Since some testers have willingly tried to test a broken version (284)
before, i can only laugh about them doing now "tests" with the version
289.
CSTal dos v289 was always able to get at least 50% against fritz or
nimzo on my machines.

Please - if you test cstal dos, do it on a fast amd machine, not on
your rusty and old-fashioned and for cstal non optimal shit intel
machines, at least 450 Mhz is needed, and at least 384 MB for
Hash-tables (this is the minimum requirement, cstal will not run on
machines with less ram).
For the next windows98 version of cstal, you need at least 10.1 or
16.8 Gigabyte harddrive-space, and a DVD-ROM (to get the
5stone-tablebases installed and the giant-opening-book).

Because of chessBase cstal win95 will not have any autoplayer-support.
The ssdf-guys will not be allowed to test it, they will not get any
version for free.
Of course the license-agreement of cstal-win95 will not allow the user
to publish test-results without the ok of the author. And anybody will
be law-suited by chris, if they do so. The program will not run on a
harddisk where any chessBase product is installed.

Life can be so interesting and enjoyable :-))))))))))))))

Have fun !
best wishes
