The Athlon XP 2400 runs at 2.0GHz, there is no Athlon XP that runs at 2.5GHz. Crafty (Elo 2607) was on a Quad Opteron 4 x 2.2GHz. So Crafty has 4.4x the GHz advantage and Hiarcs has an 205 Elo advantage. You can't tell me this is an unequal fight. Beside the object is to win, fairly squarely, by the rules. Bob has done just that. Congratulation, to him. Chris
