I was excited when Christian Barreteau announced his new version of the old and very good programme Anmon. I decided to test it against two strong commercials (Ktulu 7.5 and Smarthink 1.00), two of the best free programmes (Glaurung 1.0 and Spike 1.0), and two good mid/high ones (Homer 1.02 and Naum 1.9). The results are very interesting. My guess was between 35 to 40% overall for Anmon 5.60. The reality, slightly better. Gui: Junior 9 Pentium IV 3.00 Mhz Dual Ponder : on. Book: Perfect 9.32 for all programmes. Time control: 40 moves/12 min + 40 moves / 12 min + 10 min finish. Against commercials: Anmon 5.60 - Ktulu 7.5 +1 -4 =1 1,5/4,5 Anmon 5.60 - Smarthink 1.00 +1 -2 =3 2,5/3,5 Against very strong free programmes: Anmon 5.60 - Glaurung 1.0 +2 -2 =2 3,0/3,0 Anmon 5.60 - Spike 1.0 Mainz +0 -3 =3 1,5/4,5 Against two mid/high tier: Anmon 5.60 - Homer 1.02 +3 -1 =2 4,0/2,0 Anmon 5.60 - Naum 1.9 +3 -2 =1 3,5/2,5 Overall = +10 -14 =12 16,0/20,0 44,4% These are very promising results, in my opinion. Thanks, Christian, for the interesting upgrade of your program!. ;-) Tom Barcelona
