Zappa is really not that good.  I have much faster hardware than most people.
And Zappa is definitely worse than Crafty overall (scores ~30% on ICC).

Anyway, I stand by my statement: There aren't many people who have two strong

Possible? sure.  Probable? no.  It's not like I'm demanding to see his source or
something.
