If you want to leave God out of it, we can use a different metaphor - how about what is possible with a computer that has infinite memory and infinite speed? I have often day-dreamed about owning such a computer and what I could do with it. Such a computer could easily be used to build a very good program that would run on the computer you have at home today, just try all possible programs (up to some size and up to some total cpu cycles) and test each one. First test that your programs play legal moves in all positions, then test for strength (perhaps will a massive elimination tournament, the program that can survive a billion rounds is probably fairly strong.) - Don > s. > > > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > 8:00? 8:25? 8:40?
