I admire the american optimism :-)) but in this case, no chance.

Indeed; don't forget Shredder,Fritz,Hiarcs,King,Tiger,Rebel,...!

I guess, even the Netherlands alone would be a tough challenge for the usa
currently, because from there are the engine programmers of Fritz, The King,
Rebel, Diep...

Germany has Shredder,List,SOS,Aristarch,Goliath,Yace,Anaconda(=Gromit),Comet...

"The Netherlands versus the Rest of the World Computerchess Challenge"

would be interesting :-) I'm not sure who would win that.
