I believe Ruffian is getting MORE attention, just because it is non commercial, and quite strong, and such a dark horse, also. Much different than most newly released non commercial programs, certainly. Although I have grave reservations regarding Ruffian, I should not air them in public, without any evidence. Nonetheless, I enjoy reading the "dirt" :). Sort of like reading tidbits in the "National Enquirer" while waiting for checkout at the market. The Chessmaster posts I also enjoy a lot. Great to have a new CM release, AND have John M. here to give us all the scoop on it. (thank you, John) And wasn't the match great? What IS old and immediately tiresome to me is the name calling between T.M. & J.S., and the Monty Hall problem. The former fails any civility level. The latter just wasn't relevant and belonged on the CTForum. If Rolf wants to delve into precise meanings and understandings of testing methodology, he should find an example from Computer Chess, not from a game show. The Monty Hall probabilities are interesting though, and have been mentioned in CCC before. (I've posted previously on this myself). Rick, what kind of posts do you really like to see? David
