interesting post Larry Kaufman was the Premiere expert on Dedicated Chess computers in the United States during the 1980's and indeed wrote many articles for the CCR(Computer Chess Reports)a newsletter/magazine published by the sponser of this board really though..this is nothing new under the sun the concept of trying to rate a computer from a certain position is well accepted and there are several universally recognized test suites for this purpose the BT 2630 AND 2450 are two of the more well known suites of tests http://www.schachcomputer.at/bt2630.htm while some of the positions are from opening play others are from middle and endgame play of course Kaufman is concentrating soley on opening play in the above posting but the same expirement could me made for purely endgame play or just middlegame play the above mentioned suites try to incorporate all three stages of play to give a well balanced rating many of the dedicated units have been tested and the rating's are available in the same link above Best Steve
