Are you Sure? (much weaker than Hiarcs 6?)
Well if so, it just shows you how good Hiarcs 6 was. Once something plays decent
chess, it holds its own.
How about on slower hardware, with Rybka on todays hardware? I mean, Hiarcs on
that which beat Dean Hergot? Can that be made to be rendered a patzer, or also
not? It was certainly decent enough chess!
