Nice and interesting posts but... --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "And if I'm "on" and not distracted I could compete in the tactics as well." Compete in tactics against computers? Sorry but this seams the best joke i heard this year. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "But seriously, without opening books which are HUMAN knowledge gained over years and years ALL the programs would be considerably weaker. Take away the opening books of any top program and I bet 50 dollars I could beat it." Yes, but also chess players if they didn't study opening theory they would be considerably weaker. You could beat it, because you studied all the HUMAN knowledge, which gained over years and years. If we had computers playing from 1870 without opening book in 2000 MHz hardware, and collect the best openings they would discover, i bet they would have the same strength they have now. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "So don't criticize the human race by saying such statements as "the question is if humans know what moves are better in quieter positions." There's no doubt about it, we do!" Humans are better in quiet positions from computers, but chess is enough complicated that the statement: "humans know what moves are better in quieter positions" is totally false.
