Dear Fernando,

You know that Sargon was a nice program that represented a small step forward in
computer chess.  It was like the situation in professional sports. Todays'
football players would grind up yesterdays players.  The same goes for our
automobiles.  0 to 100 kph in 0.3 sec is not uncommon for our nitro-fueled
rails.

Progress is good-- and that is why we will all buy new chess programs in the
next millennium (and it starts next year, contrary to what some self-professed
experts have said)/  just ask Bill Gates and Ted Turner.

Happy Millennium,


Tim Frohlick


PS

Try playing Rex on a PII 133mhz under DOS 6.   Not too shabby.
