Go up one level in this thread


The answer is quite simple, Master,s and GM,s make up only a small percentage of
the chess playing population, with the majority at expert and under. If you are
selling anything at all, you want to target the largest amount of people that
will buy your product at a competative price and rating stength. Any dedicated
machine with a rating around 2200-2400 is capable of defeating 90% of
chessplayer,s at the Tournament level. So, it would be unproffitable to go
higher just to attract the small number of higher rated player,s.
