Users are the winners ;o) No! I don't like that way of looking at it, and I don't think it is true either. There should come a point when a program has a REALLY great grasp of the positions involved in chess and can apply it, and also occasionaly, at the right times, do extremely deep searches. And once all this is in a machine, it would have crossed the main barriers of computer weaknesses, and will be a program worth keeping forever which will not go out of date when new ones come along. The reason they DO go out of date, is because each one comes with alot of garbage in some positions, and a little garbage in many positions. Garbage is garbage, and as soon as that stops, that will be much happier. Oncethis leap is made, it will not anymore be something without an end. I'm not looking for the ULKTIMATE end, just the end of the garbage. S.Taylor
