Subject: Bob Hyatt personally present in Israel this weekend?

Could someone please give me some details about this? When the news came out
that Crafty would play I wasn't reading CCC. So I don't know the background. And
since normally the programmers must be present I take for a fact that Bob will
be there.

Please excuse my ignorance. BTW I think that besides the whole criticism against
such tournaments organised in real life instead of the internet I am happy that
Bob is back again in the race after such a long time of absenting. Of course
Crafty played already a couple of times but then with an operator and not Bob.

Last question. I can't get any sense in the longer thread here about "no
hardware advantage for Crafty". Why was this a topic at all? Because Bob had
somewhere said tzhat he had a 4 processor AMD etc and both Fritz and Shredder
have that too. From where came the advantage claim?

Thanks for any input.
