Hello Peter, thank you for your comments.

I thought to use a genius version. but in the tournaments before using
genius was really not a very surprising or cool thing.
it was clear the program was too weak.

I don't beliebe that version 2 would bring much new point of views.
i have a version 6.5. that should be better.

but - as i said. genius is really nothing that makes me dream ...

Virtual II ?
I thought there is a version 3 in the pipe. But nothing so far.
thats really annoying and disapointing. i would prefer to use version 3.

Mchess7.1 ?

I think 8 is better. and there are MANY 8 versions.
I am sure Andreas Wutzke could give me advise to use the right
8 settings. there a really many experimental versions. And Marty is still
interested in computerchess. yes, maybe mchess8 would be something enjoyable for
all of us.

i will ask andreas about his best versions.

PostModernist. OK- i will consider about this.
