The Q3 personality is the best at solving the tactical problems that are
included with the Rebel Century CD.  They are NOT the best for overall computer
vs computer playing.  The personality that performs best against Rebel Century
defaults is scheduled to be announced sometime in March (if my memory is
correct).  And, it may be that the personality that is shown to perform best
against the Rebel Century defaults may NOT perform best against Fritz, Junior,
Nimzo, Hiarcs, etc.  There may not be a single personality that will do best
against ALL programs; such is the world of computer chess.

So, Q3 personality is in all likelihood NOT stronger than Rebel Century
defaults, in my opinion.  I would be very surprised if it were.  Q3 DOES,
however, provide the best/quickest solutions to the tactical problems that were
included with the Rebel Century CD; I forget the exact name of the file that
contains those tactical positions.

Hope this helps clear things up.
