I assume for the discussion that the GM's do not prepare specially against the program and the program also does not do it against the GM's. 1)let talk about blitz time control Fritz3 on a pentium90 or even pentium66 (I am not sure about the facts) already won a blitz tournament as first place with kasparov(probably in 1994) so it was clearly super GM strength in blitz. I believe that more than hundred of free engines on a fast hardware are better than Fritz3 on a hardware that is at least 20 times slower. Does it mean that they all are GM strength against humans or maybe they are better only against computers and not against humans. 2)Let talk about 25 minutes per game Genius3 on p90 got super GM performance I guess that more than 80 engines on fast hardware are better than Genius3 on p90 at 25 minutes per game. Does it mean that they are GM strength at that level? 3)let talk about 120/40 time control. Tiger14 on hardware that is about 3 times slower than the best hardware of today got super gm result in argentina so it is probably GM strength. How many free engines can beat tiger14 at 120/40 with 3:1 hardware advantage? Are they also GM strength against humans? Uri
