I am in the process of making an opening book for Rybka based on what i have
observed in Rybka so far in terms of strengths and weaknesses and i am testing
Rybka beta 12 against Frizt 9 with this book at 90 min + 30 seconds per move
ponder=off and 256 Mb hash each Fritz uses it's own native book Fritz9.ctg, P4
2.8 1 Gb ram and after 13 games (out of a 100) this is the score:

                               1234567890123
1   Rybka 1.01 Beta 12 32-bit  1111101½½1111
2   Fritz 9                    0000010½½0000

It seems like with an opening book that is tuned for it's play Rybka is in a
league of it's own, well it is without too, but you get the point :)
