Linux boasts of the strongest chess entity in the form
of  Hydra which replaced Deep Blue (IBM RS/6000
powerhouse). More info : look at an article on
slashdot posted by Captain Bubudiu

However Gnuchess and Xboard are the weakest when you
compare Winboard (Xboard on windows) or even
Xboard/Gnuchess to Fritz 1.  Xboard/Gnuchess do not
have the features of Fritz 1 yet Fritz 9 is  being
released this fall.

It is time for the developers to look at Hydra's 
example and pull their socks.

As for this being off-topic Xboard and Gnuchess  are
in FC3 main repo's (I still use FC3), so there is no
issue of this belonging in the extras list.
