Hi,

The WCCC show us again that "Big Irons" are not necesary to make good
chess. what is the point ?, big hardware ?, such harware can calculate
than at 80 ply it can win a pawn, but hardware, not software. Any
one of us can write a brute force, put it on big hardware, and win the
game from the first move, is it the point?.
What programs has to improve are strategics, the programs must target to
a long term strategic supported by small tactical combinations, what a
beauty, isn't it the way we play ?, do we need to see 20 ply to make a
single move ?.

All the time we are targeting to a estrategic point, sometimes appears
tactics with and end other than our estrategic target, but that is
circunstantial, we don't played the game for this.

excuseme if i say WE when i must say I.

IMO speed is not the main point, improve knowledge.

Thanks.
