	The one encounter that I have had with a GO program was very 
disappointing. The program is titled simply "Go" and is from Hayden
Software (Sargon III, among others). I am not an experianced player,
less than 50 games vs human opponents and a little reading, and I had 
no problem beating it even with a 9 stone handicap.


Later y'all,             Vnend            Ignorance is the Mother of Adventure.
