Undoubtedly, hardware threads are easily as annoying and extensive as the one you've started. That, however, isn't an excuse. The problem isn't abolishing off-topic threads in general, but hold them up to the same standard. Computer issues seems to have more leeway. They continue on end with thinly disguised personal attacks and agendas (hardware) or until it permutates into nerdville (programming languages). Some debate is okay, neverending story isn't. >To me this is very on topic, because it has to do with my chess program, and >whether I should consider C or not. That may be. But you didn't actually mention anything about your chess program in the original message, eg. "What is the best programming language for computer chess?" (already done before IIRC), nor is it clear that you are working on a program. I'm sure that there are equally "unbiased" boards available. If not, start one or ask some of the experts through e-mail. Regards, Mogens
