Yes, the standard chess engine comes from the 1987 World Championship winner – the Mephisto Roma program. It was originally written in Motorola 68000 assembly language and so runs unchanged on Palm devices. The chess engine is a further development of the famous Mephisto Amsterdam program and contains many thousands of man hours of work. The new ARM engine is a modern chess engine which supports hash tables and is much stronger.
