I had noticed the word "idiota" in the original posting, and thought the message
was probably a direct flame of the person setting up the Hiarcs-Yermolinsky
match.  I hereby invite any moderator to remove the message. :)

<grin>  Yeah, I believe I suggested he come up with a P3 in an earlier response
as well.  But isn't he shooting his sights a little low?  I mean, why not demand
a Kryoteched Alpha and some programmers to port Hiarcs to it?  It wouldn't take
any more effort on his part!

What are you showing up with in Paderborn with?  You said in some earlier post
that you had developed a parallel search.  How many processors will you run?
What kind of speedup do you get?  And will the parallelization increase or
decrease your chances at winning the blitz tournament yet again? :-)
