>Hi,
>many of people want only the strongest engines, why?

Why do people want to see Brazil play football, why do people want to see
Kasparov or any other top rated player play etc.

The vast majority who watches forumla 1 wants to see the best, but have never
driven a formula 1 car, it is only natural that we want to see the best in their
field.

In computer chess i think this is even more natural as we would not have a
hobby/common interest if there wasn't once in a while program that surprised us
all, this year we had not one, but two such engines.
