Hi Rob,

I'm not Steve but tried this position with Genius 68030 anyway. Not surprisingly
(I think) it needed far longer:

1h 22min and 8 plies.

I guess this fits very well with Thorsten Czubs comments on Richard Lang's
programs (they are using asymetrical search - strongly selective when looking at
own possibilities and much 'wider' when searching through opponents
alternatives).

Non-Genius Regards,
Martin
