Bob,

Sorry, but it's hopeless. You can post a warning about the unreliability
of single computer tests every day. It will not matter. Most people do
not have 2 computers; they want to run matches between various programs
because it's fun; they simply will not recognize the disparity between
their results and 2-computer results as being a reason to question their
validity because that would be admitting that much of their effort has
been a waste of time, at least in determining relative playing strengths
of the programs.
Engine v engine tests in one computer will be with us forever, more or less.
