I'm not, and I didn't say "Rebel 10" notice.  I assume that Ed is doing
his normal tst games against fritz, albiet manually, so that rebel 10 will
be able to beat fritz 5.  Then I'd suspect that the ChessBase folks do the
same and fritz 6 will be back in the driver's seat again...  That's been a
"trend" for a couple of years with the commercial chess programs...   Last
one out is *always* the best...
