What about deep blue or Belle or Cray Blitz or >other programs that simply won't run on a PC? Could we require everyone run on >a Cray? i dont even know who Brutus is :)) can it not be ported or written to a common hardware system? please explain what is so hard about the simple idea of announcing well in advance that a dell(for example)computer running on a xxx mip computer with a yyyy processor will be the hardware used all entrants will have their programs installed on the tournament hall computers before the match now i realize that in the early days with hugh mainframes you could not possibly expect Kaissa to use the same hardware as Chess 3.5 but today? or is it, that this would force all programmers to go out and buy the same system to be used at the tournament site and it would cause a finanical hardship ?
