The ChessMaster for the XBox with 733 MHz should be at least 50 rating points
higher than with the PlayStation with only 295 MHz; but the newer PS3 will be
200 times faster :-)

PS3 console to be released in 2005
Japanese media reported on May 6th that the PS3 console is in development. The
goal is to make new processor technology, called "grid" about 200x faster than
current console technology. This is almost achieving their original goal of
making the PS3 1000(!) times faster than the PS2. This goal was publically set
by Mr Okamoto, the Senior VP and Chief Technical Officer of Sony Computer
Entertainment, at the 2002 Game Developers Conference in San Jose, California.
