Back in the good old days when all the Affordable Home P.C. were monoprocessor,
the best Chess programs were combined with the best available single Processor
P.C. in order to have a chance of winning the World Computer Chess Championship.
But now we don't even give recognition to the Winner of the Monoprocessor
Program which was GREEN LIGHT by Tim Fodem. This was a great accomplishment,
since in order to win you have to at least win against
one of the program using much powerful system such as Dual Opteron. Both El
chinito and Green Light won a game against Deep Sjeng. In my Opinion List was
going to upset another of the big boys besides BRUTUS, but unfortunately it was
not given the chance.

PS: Congratulations to Tim Foden for having the courage to enter knowing that
you were going to be facing Top Chess Programs using Super Computers.
