Actually, I think DarkThought may be on the slowest machine (Alpha 500MHz, which
supposedly scales to something like P350(?)).  I was surprised it didn't run on
at least a 767...(And it's *really* too bad Bob couldn't get a hold of that 16
processor Alpha machine for them in time...I think DarkThought would be
extremely difficult at best for any opponent with a machine like that. :)
