The beauty of chess is that as soon as one engine solves a problem, there is a
another problem to take its place.  The number of chess positions is roughly
estimated at ~10^43 at a game of 40 moves.  Less than the number of atoms on
earth ~10^50 - but greater than the number of grams the earth weighs  ~10^27.

We have a ways to go yet ;>)
