  One thing you cannot compete against is the raw
speed of calculation of the top chess programs.
Where your Java applet may indicate, say, a depth
of twelve plys, such a program as Rybka or Fritz
might well be looking much deeper in the same
amount of time.

  I don't know much about all the tricks that modern
programmers use to speed up the search; in fact, I
doubt I could implement "pruning" without a lot of
help, let alone more sophisticated tricks.  I do know
that a program that cannot get the basics of tactics
down pat is not likely to compete, since basic tactics
are the keystone of strong chess.  In fact, even if you
wrote a program which was as dumb as a box of
rocks when it came to positional play, if it was very
strong at tactics it would probably beat most human
opponents more often than not.
