I believe it was a highly selective searcher (Shannon Type B). According to this site, http://www.oellermann.com/cftchess/notes/history.html it searched about 10 nodes/second. Not enough to beat Bobby Fischer. But it also played in the Massachusetts state chess championship in the 1960's. Greenblatt also was one of the authors of TECO (anybody besides me old enough to have actually used it?) and was involved in building LISP machines at MIT in the 70's with Richard Stallman. --Jon
