Subject: SOS in Arena

What is the SSDF's rating for SOS? Do SOS have an international master's rating
or less? It seems to me that SOS is stronger than Ruffian on my P4 2.4 ghz
computer with 256k ram. Is the Arena gui a good all-round chess training tool or
should you check-out the Chess Assistant or ChessBase systems?? Right now I am
taking down finger-notes on what I have observed international grandmasters do
when they play in OTB tournaments. Do you know from Inside Chess Magazine
(now defunct) that gms take one hour to make 20 moves for a time control of 40/2
?! Are you aware of the fact that most grandmasters follows something like a
Geneva Convention in their conduct at the chessboard (yes moves included!!)?
This is a sample of my grandmaster analysis based on Chess Life, Inside Chess,
TWIC, Squares, and ChessBase sample grandmaster's games. I hope that you find
this bulletin board article thought-provoking and insightful. I wish you well on
your grandmaster game analysis!

cordially yours, Frank
