Hi Fernando
Would you like a copy of the first computer program written to run on the first
PC's made?
I had an outstanding estimated ELO rating of about 650 on a 2 megahertz machine.
It only searched 3 plys and on occasion it might make an illegal move.
The program was written by Peter Jennings and is call MicroChess.
Someone converted it to run on modern PC's by translating it to 'C'.
It's yours if you want it.
Bill
