I am aware of the links you provided above >and Tao is outstanding in these positions, it just a different story in playing >normal games. ok I looked at links of normal rating in Royal Blitz. http://www.computerschachecke.de/ Tao is number 50 in the royal blitz when movei is only number 64. If you do not include more than one version of the same program than Tao is clearly better than number 50 and seems to be place 34 that I consider to be a good result for a free engine. 1)Fritz8 2766 2)Hiarcs9 2756 3)Shredder8 2727 4)tiger15 2724 5)ruffian2 2677 6)The king3.23 milan 2650 7)Deep Junior7 2635 34)Tao5.6 2467 Movei 2375 Uri
