Some say that GNUchess is a very strong chess program.  I think I
have heard that it should be about 2500 US ratings on a SPARC station.
Some others say that it plays an awful chess.  Far below commercial
chess computers.  Those two statements are contradictory.  What is
the truth?   Has anyone made (serious) testings of the strength?
