Well they are stating that it is the strongest, and telling you how they are making this claim, and how they obtained this claim by the method they stated. So like everything else leave it up to your own mind as to whether they are true or not. Lets face it, most serious chess people who would consider buying chessbase programs already know how strong most programs are and how they are ranked. So I think it makes them look foolish if their statements are false.
