Not! Maybe, maybe not, i see your point, but Chrilly have one too; when we get such a result against such a strong GM who plays the same against the computer as he does human, we get a better understanding of it's _potential_ strength as it is not based on expert anti computer play, and BTW i think Adams has played really good so far. That being said i think there is too much hype on both sides when it comes to these matches, what we can objectively conclude so far is that Hydra can match the big guys, perhaps even beat them, time will tell.
