What's your problem?  Hiarcs for the Palm is in development and they have
published some [impressive] blitz results against dedicated hardware.  Looking
at the margin of victory I would say that there is a reasonable level of
statistical significance - maybe 80% chance that Hiarcs for the Palm is better
at blitz than all of the dedicated machines tested.  Why is this a joke?

I cannot remeber one ChessBase product that has published a statistically
significant sample of games as part of it's promotional blurb.

I smell a troll!
