Interesting! But now I ask you a simple question: what exactly does that mean? I
mean for Fritz 8, let's keep it simple.

Actually I understand you this way: (as if you said) "look folks, when I open
the door in my house, suddenly it stands all open, no longer safely closed,
isn't that kind of spooky? What does that mean? Is there someone here who plans
to rob my personal computer? What did ChessBase plan with me? Do they want to
screw my test results in an unfair manner? Will my girlfriend leave me next
summer?"

Please dont mistake me. I ask you to please deliver the lacking explanations, I
give you a list from:

  1  if we concentrate on Fritz 8, what did ChessBase do?

  2  did CB screw something that would normally run in a different way?

  3  seriously: could you explain how CB could fare with their GUI if FRITZ is
their original engine/program for which the GUI was written in the first place?
I repeat: could you or someone else explain how they could construct a GUI that
is NOT guided by the direct relation to their FRITZ?

  4  We have here Andy G. among others who declares that sure it's kind of
spooky because we must only compare the mess in CB GUI with Arena, the wonderful
GUI... But I ask a simple quesion to all here in CCC: what is the program, the
chess program for which the Arena GUI has been created? No idea? Does everybody
see the difference to CB right now?

Since that problem or topic is actually so important for the actual tests with
Rybka I advise the Rybka fans to ask for a Rybka-in favor- GUI from Vas himself.
But I would seriously recommand all the Rybka fans to stop with this kind of
paranoia that somewhere in the distant Middle Ages a company decided to conquer
the World of CC and in special with the side effect that namely Rybka would be
seriously disabled. This is bogus plus hyperbole in high-concentrated alcohol.
