White has slight advantages, but is far from a win. Rebel played an *aweful*
Nxc4, and loses quickly. There isn't an engine in the world Crafty couldn't
have snatched a win from after this move. Qb7 is probably best, but as I said,
white still has some advantages.
At 2+ minutes on the P4, Rebel chooses Nxc4 with a score of 0.00 @ ply 15. It
would have taken at least 16 minutes to get to the same ply on the Celeron. So
even on faster hardware, Rebel would have more than likely lost this game.
