For what I've read of it (in spanish) it is very tactic, but not that good in
endgames or positionally. It is basically fritz 6, but the writer thinks it has
been limited on purpose. This where the results of the writer.

Here are his tests:

15' / partida              w w w w b b b b  T
Magellan SH7000/20 512Kb   1 = = 1 1 1 1 1  7
Portorose 68020/12 1024Kb  0 = = 0 0 0 0 0  1

30' / partida              w w w b b b  T
Magellan SH7000/20 512Kb   1 1 1 = = 1  5
Almería 68020/12 1024Kb    0 0 0 = = 0  1

40 / 2                     w w w w b b b b  T
Magellan SH7000/20 512Kb   = = = 1 0 = = =  4
Mach IV 68020/20 512Kb     = = = 0 1 = = =  4

30' / partida              w w w w w b b b b b  T
Magellan SH7000/20 512Kb   0 0 1 0 0 0 1 = = 0  3
Risc II ARM2/14 1024Kb     1 1 0 1 1 1 0 = = 1  7

30' / partida              w w w w w b b b b b  T
Magellan SH7000/20 512Kb   = 0 = 0 0 0 = 0 1 0  2,5
Vancouver 68000/20 512Kb   = 1 = 1 1 1 = 1 0 1  7,5

40 / 2                     w w w w w b b b b b   w b   T
Magellan SH7000/20 512Kb   = 1 0 1 = = = 0 1 0   0 1   6
Risc II ARM2/14 1024Kb     = 0 1 0 = = = 1 0 1   1 0   6

40 / 2                     w w w b b b   T
