Just to confirm. Neither had PB on as we all know if you even tried you would
receive a warning asking "do you really want this".

The games are posted, the evals are there to be seen as are the times for each
move. Please feel free to examine the games with your copies of both programs
and you can confirm for yourself that the moves are correct.

Also please feel free to run your own set of 30 games as others have posting
very similar results.
