Of course it will depend on the cpu speed. Most Sargon V tests have been on much
slower hardware than today's.

Some more Sargon stuff:

With videos from a 1985 tv show, with Kathe Spracklen introducing Sargon III on
a Mac :) Try at least the 14 MB version, the download is certainly worthwhile if
you are a computerchess nostalgic. Watch how almost anything she says about
chess software, is still up-to-date! The point is, in such a "mainstream" tv
show you must be able to express important things in a most-compressed but still
correct way, and she was capable of doing so.

Steve,
who wants Sargon VI :))
