After playing Kasparov at 40 moves in one hour, with a draw as a result, I pitted the old, venerable machine, against a freeware, Sharpchess, at 20 seconds per move. As you can imagine, Sharpchess runned in my Pc with a processor many many times faster than the one in Kasparov, but even so Kaspy had the high hand. The position ended like this: 6k1/4p2p/6p1/8/p7/5PK1/6PP/8 b - - 1 38 There I said it was enough. Kaspy, with blacks, showed that a good program is still far superior to an average engine, no matter how much faster is. If I can get the full game from the bowels of sharpchess and you are interested, It will be publizshed here. Fernando
