Re: Facts only please....




i do wonder however, if the ippolit authors were so brilliant, why in over a year they've made no real improvement in pure strength. that's a tough one to wrap my head around if i assume that it's not a clone or derivative of R3.

Vas hasn't improved Rybka much either in the 2 years between R3 ...

Re: Fritz under linux

Yes, why move to Ubuntu and then ask how to run Fritz ?
