The position was cut and pasted to my epd file. I >don't know why your times are so bad, this was an easy position for hiarcs7. I heard from Melvin that he's running a 400MHz K6 (K7 please, now!). I'm going to setup Hiarcs 7 on my newer machine, see where we get to... Thanks, anyway -- it's right of you to point this out! Next good position I find, I think I'll post it without timings -- anyone can do their own, and my main aim is to provide useful test material for programmers -- never mind which commercial program wins! On the other hand, I reserve the right to wax occasionally enthusiastic about programs like CSTal II and LGG 2.0, when they show, however sporadically, signs of intelligence... Francis
