Pretty strong is a big word :-) It is about 10 kyu, which means a low-average club player. I would put it at about the same as 1500 elo in chess. The way to Kasparov (= top professionals) is VERY VERY long. >I've had it from day one. It's not bad. And others are good enough to usually >beat me too. But that wasn't the issue. The issue is beating the really >strong Go-playing humans -- called professionals -- that are the equivalent of >chess masters. The professionals are more equparable to GMs than to masters. There are much less than 1000. However the issue is not beating them. Making the programs reach good level amateurs (1900 - 2000 elo) would already bring lots of sales i think, but it is difficult to achieve. Maurizio
