If you are saying that whatever Deep thought (or blue?) found in about 1990, is found today with something which is not even a chess program, just almost anything like a chair or a table, then I would say YES! that DOES look like good progress for 15 years! But if that is really the best move, I'd think that the best Palm program today can find (on the fastest Palm) star DB DT moves in seconds. Faster than the older DT or even DB models. S.Taylor
