I played it vs. Sargon III, four games at about four minutes per move, and Psion won all of them. Also, Psion running on my little mac plus, beat a pd chess game on a VAX 8550. I can't vouch for the quality of the VAX program, but my mac was giving up 10 times or so the number crunching power. Has anyone tried Sargon or Psion vs. GnuChess? I've heard it's quite good..... =>Pat =========================================================================== Patrick Plaisted |pat@agvax2.ag.ohio-state.edu System Programmer | or if you want to Ohio Cooperative Extension Service | torture me with unix: The Ohio State University |pat@klingon.eng.ohio-state.edu 2120 Fyffe Rd.
