O.K., just my 2 cents.....

If someone had posted a subject like "Fritz wins match against Crafty" then
that seems to me to be objective science.  But the way some posts are written,
it sounds almost like it has become too personal.

The subject "Crafty not that strong" seems to me to immediately imply that Craft
is a weak program.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  We are
talking about the different between beating 99.99% of all players and 99.98%.
If Crafty is at all weaker than the comercial programs, then I am sure that
weakness is extremely subtle.  Against human vs. computer competition or in
analysis, there is not likely to be much difference.
