There's no comparison between Windows 7 chess and Houdini. Assuming your talking about Houdini 3 multi processor version which, is the only version I have used.
My nephew beat HOUDINI?!?!

All chess engines are beatable regardless what level. They have a pattern like the CPU controlled characters in fighting games. I played against the Windows 7 chess engine on level 10 and the final two pieces on the board were just the kings (a draw).
Are you talking about Chess Titans? I believe that's how it's called ...
Regardless, forcing it to a draw on Level 10 is probably something I'd have trouble with accomplishing.

Haha chess titans is nothing compared to houdini.
Let me edit my statement, chess titans is negative 1 compared to houdini.

I can beat level 10 chess titans in my sleep.
An FM could beat me in his sleep.
A GM could beat an FM in his sleep.
Carlsen could beat a GM in his sleep.
Houdini 1.5 can beat Carlsen I believe.
Houdini 3 is a huge improvement on houdini 1.5.
That is the difference between houdini and chess titans. I hope you understand that comparing houdini to chess titans is like comparing the solar system to a 5 inch model.
And to correct Rasparov, chess titans is negative infinity compared to houdini.

And you could beat me in your sleep. And I own some very expensive headphones!

Now, against what am I actually comparing with? Chess Titans geared up at 10 ... what's a rough equivalent in ELO points for that?

Probably 1300 give or take 100.
Oh, well, then I could probably beat it too...
The last time I played it was when I was just 13 or 14 years old, so in my memory it was a lot stronger ...

Houdini vs chess titans level 10:
What is impressive is how houdini plays into a relatively equal ending (I'm not using an opening book), and how it afterwards destroys chess titans piece by piece with a series of extremely accurate moves, despite the fact that chess titans spent more time analyzing than houdini.

It's awesome watching the engine actually play on its god-like plane like this. To my untrained human eyes, it looks like a goddamn beast!

Yeah chess titans, but all chess engines are beatable regardless what level. They have a pattern like the CPU controlled characters in fighting games...

Not to say it's true or not, but people with autism on occasion can do things at incredible rates. There are people who never played an instrument in their life, had something cause brain damage, then they became incredible within months. He COULD be a savant and is capable of playing chess as good as a computer because his mind essentially IS a computer. Ever seen Rain Man and how he calculates HUGE numbers? That isn't just in movies y'know...
I for one am autistic and have beat the HARD computer here and beat Sigma Chess 6.2, in which Sigma Chess's rating is 2500.

Yet your rating sucks ass. Or are you being sarcastic?
