Since I posted something resembling the above, let's get it straight: The results on P90 for MCPro6 are: MCPro6 - CG3 15.5 : 4.5 MCPro6 - CG4 16.5 : 23.5 MCPro6 - CG5 15:5 : 24.5 The last two results are not unusual. They indicate Genius better by 60 and 80 rating points respectively, and are not 95%-significance proof that Genius is better. The first result is unusual. It indicates MCPro is better by more than 200 rating points better, and is more than 95%-significance proof that MChess is better. MCPro6 was released and listed AFTER all three Genius versions, so there is no possibility of Genius retaliation taking place. Make any conclusion you want with this data, but don't distort it. Amir
