Also, could any engine of 1995 have any possibility against Ruffian, an >engine of 2003? Because, again, how did you get the last Diep Version 2.XXX from >2001? Only one note about the last question. Remember that the engine from 1995 get hardware advantage of 2800 Mhz against Ruffian's 950 Mhz. Without hardware advantage I am sure that no engine from 1995 has chances. With hardware advantage I am less sure about it and I suspect that Genius3 of 1994 can get close to 50% at blitz(I am not sure if more than 50% or less than 50%). Uri
