You're not better than the program - >you just moved faster, that's all! That makes it ten times harder, if that is the main difference. A fast enough computer can play reasonable moves in G/1 minute. It is very difficult for humans to do that. For nearly every computer account, if you examine computer's Elo at lightning, it is higher than the same computer account at blitz. If you examine computer's Elo at blitz, it is higher than the same computer account at standard. The trend would continue (I imagine) up through correspondence time control. So if you can beat a computer on a small time budget, then you are really good. IMO-YMMV.
