It seems to me that the new Comet has some problems, and is perhaps weaker than
previous versions.  Here's a position, for example:

[D]6k1/5pp1/2p1p2p/q1Pn4/3QB3/P2R2P1/5P1P/1r4K1 w - -

White must play Rd1, with a negative score, but Comet plays Kg2, failing to see
the quick loss.  You can also play thru the moves, Kg2 Qe1 Kh3, then see than
Comet takes a long time to find f5, which should be easy.

Comet has previously been a very strong program, certainly stronger than mine.
But now, that's harder to prove, and it's not due to much increase on my part.

I'd be interested to hear what Uli has to say.
