Such a sad state of affairs now in computer chess. Hello Eriq, I disagree. When Crafty or Yace ( both free and console enabled so no gui required) kicks your butt to the left and right that is understandable. How do you explain getting smashed by engine X set to 800 Elo in a pretty gui? :-) Later. Ps. Try some of the new engines coming out these days. My personal favourites are Mike Byrne's Crafty SE and Roce. Great fun and I do not feel like a complete patzer.
