Hi John
Comparing the results:
CM9 vs Tao 5.6 (ponder=off) 13,5-6,5
CM9 vs Tao 5.6 (ponder=on)  15,0-5,0
we see (as usual) no significant difference as far as results are concerned
whether playing with ponder on/off and that's why I do no longer see any
reason to use two PC's for computer matches. True, the games are not the
same but this "disadvantage" is overcompensated by the fact that you can
play much more games with two computers. And in this way you have statistically
spoken more reliable results.
