Thanks for the position Richard! The custom "Q5T"-personality for Rebel Century
2.0 on a yesteryear's Celeron 500 picks up Shredder's move Rxc4 after 34
seconds, and it seems to be holding now. I let it run on a bit. I would also
like to take the opportunity here to apologize in general for not posting other
program's results, as it is I am lucky that ECTool is still working, a Windows
crash/problem forced me to uninstall several other chessprograms a good while
back, I don't really want to risk installing the programs (or purchasing new
ones) again as it was an installation problem that brought the Windows problems
to light. And I should get a good back-up facility before proceeding, I know...
