Not exactly. Ed and I are cooperating in such a way that we both improve our
programs.
Ed improves Rebel with good things he has found in Tiger, I improve Tiger with
good things I have found in Rebel.
The result is that both Tiger and Rebel are improving, and much faster than any
other chess programs in the world. Look at the latest results of Chess Tiger
12.0 if you want a proof.
And the good thing for the customers is that Rebel and Tiger, even if they
benefit from each other, are very very different programs. They have different
styles, different abilities, and so on. This is not going to change.
Chess Tiger 12.0 is going to be released as a standalone Windows chess program
very soon.
Next year, when Rebel will be integrated into the Windows interface, you will be
able to have both Rebel and Chess Tiger running inside the same Windows
interface.
This will be very interesting and will give you more flexibility in the
analysis, because as I pointed out above the 2 programs have different styles.
What's the use to have 3 different programs in your interface if they all give
the same kind of moves?

That's correct.
