I would expect ChessGenius on a standard 17Mhz Palm to >exceed this strength (especially if the Palm is overclocked). I think there was a big jump in performance between the 68000 and the 68020. So I doubt the Palm would run a chess program much better than the Roma. It's maybe half as fast, but that's just a guess. (Who knows, maybe Motorola significantly improved the 68000 core for the Dragonball.) -Tom
