No, it is not the Ruffian, but I have had this Genius 2 program for about 9
years.
My rating has gone up 175 USCF points since then.
It is truly a Genius when it comes to brevity, too.
I recommend this program to all players below eighty percentile.
I have found only 2 strategical errors in those 9 nine years, and I still use it
today.
Another thing, please ignore the opening library; it will play better without
one.
