I wonder why so little people play with nimzo out there at blitz levels. I thought nimzo2000 winboard version was commercially available. Nimzo is a great blitz program. Yet only very few people run it there. So paying for a strong program in order to play with it unattended at ICC seemingly isn't done that much as some suppose it would. I get however daily the question either by email or by direct talk whether they can test DIEP, offering a K6-200 from K7-650 to dual PIII700. So they could afford that hardware and internet. Vincent
