Using this illogical extensions it can see the famous mate in 30 in Ed's page in depth 1. I also think that Game/30 minutes for slow PC is equivalent to game/1 minute on today PC and the top programs at game/1 minutes are also the same programs so I do not think that there is going to be difference because of search that is not good for slow pc.
