Love it ! That is just so sweet !

I tried it with Crafty 17.5 and after 4.5 minutes it sees a mate by black (!) in
27 moves starting with 1. kf2, then after 15 minutes thinks its a draw with 1.
Kxg2. then I gave up. Of course I am using a P-II/300 with a measly 3MB hash, I
bet on Dr. Hyatt's quad xeon the answer comes up terribly fast !.

I wish I had a machine like that :(. One of these days I will get myself a
machine that is not obsolete (read not 2yrs old).

BTW, would you also mind running crafty analyses (you seem to have a faster
machine and more memory). It's my personal favorite and I always like to see how
it does .


thanks for another great position !

Sanjiv.
