It's a good question.
Using a multiprocessor system prevents you from winning the "Micro" title. And
in this case you have to fight with some big/fast iron.
I can imagine that non-commercial programmers want to use the most powerful
system and enter the championship with a multiprocessor system, but commercial
programmers will certainly hesitate before giving up the possibility to win the
"Best Micro Program" title.
Chess Tiger will run on a single processor PC.
