Nxe4 is actually the only move in my book here...  :)

Crafty has +1.0 here at 13 plies and 1 minute (on my dual 2.8) but can't find
any better move at 13 (+1.0 is good for white).

Quad opteron would be about 5x faster (raw) maybe 4x faster overall, so the 13
ply search would finish in a minute, but I'm not sure it could improve this at
depth=14...
