DHM ok, maybe I can get a hold of a friends laptop and play against fritz7 he has a 1.8ghz centrino. I used it before when I first got the palm and it made a nice draw against fritz7 in a game I only played two games and it loss the other game to fritz but was very close even then. anyway I will see, but not much around me is faster than than that linux box of mine, last time I did benchmarks it scored like a dual 2.2 xeon.
