SSDF certainly can use the following engines that are the engines with the lowest ssdf rating on Athlon1200 45 Gromit 3.11.9 256MB Athlon 1200 MHz 2608 44 -46 246 43% 2660 46 Yace Paderborn 256MB Athlon 1200 MHz 2604 35 -35 389 48% 2618 The difference is not so big considering the fact that fruit may be 200 elo better than the R40 and that the best dedicated machine in the ssdf is 112 R30 v. 2.5 2274 41 -38 343 69% 2135 R30 is weaker than R40 and R40 is probably 200 elo weaker than Fruit so games against these programs may be an interesting. I also think that if testers use K6-450 they can use the following programs. I guess that RES-fruit has good chances to beat them. 69 Crafty 17.07/CB 128MB K6-2 450 MHz 2491 20 -21 1186 39% 2571 70 Crafty 18.12/CB 128MB K6-2 450 MHz 2489 27 -28 733 29% 2646 71 Nimzo 99 128MB K6-2 450 MHz 2486 22 -22 996 44% 2528 72 MChess Pro 8.0 128MB K6-2 450 MHz 2479 25 -26 753 40% 2549 74 Genius 6.5 128MB K6-2 450 MHz 2475 29 -29 565 48% 2488 Uri
