And I never said other wise, but this match is being used to try and settle the computer strength question, as their are not many games at this time control with modern pc programs. If Rebel can play at a GM level then that answers the question that is now in debate, we only need one PC program to play at a GM level to settle this debate, not every PC program. It is not relevant if Rebel is the strongest PC program or not, if it can performs at a GM level. A much different thing than a pc in tournament play. >My opinion is that GM's will perform better vs computers in match play >than in the more predominant tournament play.
