I do not think we can say anything about Rybka NPS reporting until Vasik Rajlich
gives us his working definition of a node.

I would be pretty astonished if he is intentionally giving us bad numbers.

I see two possibilities:
1.  He has a bug in his node computation.
2.  He counts nodes differently than other people do.

I think a conspiracy of false reporting has a probablility of about .000001%
