so Fern let me ask you a question about this Rybka i played a game just now with Rybka 32 bit freeware version against the Res-Fruit 05..Game 15sec average per move i used Arena 1.1 in the game Rybka could not mate RES-Fruit with a queen and a rook against the lone king it shuffled the queen and rook back and forth this has been fixed in the $32 buck version?? if not.. then how can anyone even say Rybka won any games when it cannot mate? i considered this game a draw as Rybka could not mate and the game would still be going on until they came to bury me. you know i am not a fancy chess computer guy..and i do not read all of the 1000's of daily posts here about Rybka but this is a little rediculous i think but what do i know? maybe its ok for pc programs in 2005 to not have to be able to mate? i am trying to think when the last time a dedicated computer could not mate with a Queen and a Rook vs lone K I think it was 1978 Chess Challenger 3 going right back to dedicated as quick as i can regards Steve
