OK Victor, let's say it was unfortunate.
But I would like to point out the fact that the program Rebel for example
performs very well against humans, and its author Ed Schröder has been working
hard to achieve this.
I would also like to point out that the Tiger engines have a "anti-human" mode.
So I insist that you should first try to be better informed about recent
advances in computer chess.
