>Correctin the last message. (excuseme my bad english)

>>Of course that will be very interesting.  A few word about that:

>>We are talking about a math between the number 2 or 3 human master in
>>the word!! (Anan) and the number 2 or 3 computer master in the word
>>including Deep Blue (Rebel). I think that we are underdimension this
>>event.  Think about, if we make the match in may, put much money for
>>Anand and much publicity for de event, then we get another match like
>>Kasparov-DB.  So a contest like you propose is necesari for an event of
>>this Dimension.

I have added add a script on the Rebel Home Page so you can sent the
predictions for the match. We then will get a picture what people
expect to happen. I am very curious...


>Two posibilitys to add interest in this match:

>>1) maybe Anand play better chess against computer than Kasparov.

>>2) maybe Rebel in a fast pc can win a match against DB. (before take an
>>opinion about this 2 posibility take a look at NPS match Rebel-Crafty.

>>So Ed. go ahead, make the match as good as you can. And do all publicity
>>you can.

>By the way, I have a constructive criticize about Rebel. I like very
>much the humanplay and strong play of Rebel and its incredibles
>features.  BUT Rebel is not a windows program. Then i use Fritz5 with
>Hiarc6 much more than Rebel.  Actually i only use Rebel when i want the
>strongest move in a very complex position.  I am sure that this is the
>same problem that have a lot of people. So my list for rebel10 or
>rebel11:

>1) Rebel enterely for windows, add suport of other engines (junior,
>hiarc, fritz, etc)

See: http://www.rebel.nl/rebel10a.htm


>2) Add options for easy impresion of game in 2 or more colums (fritz
>alike).

The Rebel9 Game Overview (ALT_C) will divide the game into 15 columns.


>3) Add options for put references of selected database in a game
>analisys (fritz alike).

Will be done in Rebel10.
