Subject: Match Hiarcs6 Mac - MacChess 5.0

Hello,

I finished a match between Hiarcs 6 for Mac and MacChess 5.0 on two performa
5260 (PPC 603e, 120 Mhz, no cache). The games were in 40mvs/2h.

The result is : Hiarcs-MacChess = 8-2 (+7 =2 -1)

I'm very impressed by the positional play of Hiarcs : MacChess was often 2 plies
deeper (in the middlegame the average was 6-7 for Hiarcs and 8-9 for MacChess),
but it was a complete domination of Hiarcs. Hiarcs is also very (very) good in
the endings.

I really thought that MacChess had a chance on such a slow machine.
Hiarcs must be impressive on a G3 !!

I can post the games if you want, or e-mail them to those who desire.
