I agree with what manikcharan said above.

Equal?
May I remind you that all chess pieces are equal, some are just more equal then others.

Maybe.   Depends on the positions and the players --  if you're taking the knight/bishop away from someone who is particularly adept with the piece, I would say probably.

you will never have the chance to trade your queen for a knight or a bishop plus six pawns, never

Avatar of Cry_Wolf

mag is right... how the heck would you achieve a position where such an exchange could be orquestrated?

The position shows an exchange of queen for bishop.

All the other stuff were taken for free.

Much depends on when making such trade-off? At the beginning of the game or at the end? At the end of the party such an exchange is quite profitable. Increases the value of pawns. And of course we must look at the position.
