  After 13 games, the score stands
Gnu	Mach 3	Draws
7	1	5

This translates to 9.5/13, or 73%, which would
be a 184 pt difference between humans; for computers,
we contract ratings differences by 20%, yielding a 147-pt
difference.  Adding this to the Mach 3's 2203 Action chess
rating give Gnuchess a 2350 rating on my RS/6000.  This 
represents a clear improvement over the last test of Gnu
(an earlier version which earned a 2300 rating on
comparable hardware).  Kudos to the Gnuchess team
for their continued improvement of the program!
