As in sports I hope to see lots of post game analysis. Especially I hope Anand will share his thoughts on the match. The underdog has won the match. Now if Rebel can even manage to draw one of the 40/2 games, that would be icing on the cake. Anti-GM engine (Ed), anti-Anand opening book (Jeroen), fast hardware >(K6/450, Kryotech) sum up to a legitimate challenge for Anand.
