I already read something the like from Thorsten. Your advice is wrong. Playing
against computers as a human is NOT human chess=normal chess. It's
computerchess. The impostering that computerchess is ONLY engine vs engine chess
is imagination but not reality. Engine vs engine chess is sort of testing and
has no real value for a human who wants to play computers. As I said testing
isn't even providing you with significant results because you dont have the time
to test a certain version of a prog because then the next version is already
coming. So the only reasonable chess is plying computers as a human.
