Not a problem I have no more than 256 Mb RAM It is also more fun to win when the opponent has hardware advantage. I am not participating but I do not like to spend money on better hardware only for a competition. I also do not like to spend money on travelling to another country when I know that I have no practical chance to win the competition and it is another reason not to participate. Uri
