I make that 512? is that correct?
In fact is an American billion different to a UK billion?

Mmm, what to do with my first guess? A wild shot or a serious try? I think Mark has about seven dedicated computers so Steve and Mark together must have at least 632 dedicated units, including doubles and program-modules without a board, but not counting separate opening modules, endgame modules etc. that do not contain a chessplaying program.

Good Evening or Afternoon!
Just in case Steve has been quietly selling his 65 robots because there is a new one hopefully in the makes and he had to make some room, my second guess would be 567.

Well, this is an easy one.
Mark has 27.
Steve has 213, and 5 broken ones.
Makes together 242.5!
PS: Don't send me the Citrine, I might be moving soon.

Andy
