The thing about computer chess is that "the swift do not always win the race." Many times in the past modest hardware has beaten powerful hardware. Even Deep Blue didn't always win the tournaments it played in.
They came to one competition and Campbell told me that they had estimated their winning chances at about 50/50 - which was far ahead of any of the other competitors. As it turns out, Fritz won that particular time on one of the least powerful machines that was at that tournament. - Don On Wed, 2009-01-14 at 22:27 -0800, Dave Dyer wrote: > Lets look at it another way - no one would care what hardware > you choose to use, unless you win.
