I have noticed that many computer chess tournaments are run on differing CPU's. I don't understand how the results of ProgramX runnning on a P200 against ProgramY running on a P90 are meaningful. I think the hardware environment affects the results quite substantially. For example, given Fritz5 running on a 486 66mz and Fritz5 running on a Pentium 450, I would think that a game analysis done on the Pentium 450 at 30 seconds per move would be more thorough than a game analysis done on the 486 at 3 minutes per move. Am I way off here?
