There's a friendly war of words and fan fares campaign going on in other forums about the upcoming Zappa Mexico vs Rybka, Anthony is still around in computer chess, and Vasik is actively developing Rybka I wonder who will in a 10 games matches?
Some games of latest version of Zappa is available in Rybka forum.
Don't only take engine strength into account, you might as well take hardware used into account.
I wish Vasik and Anthony the best of luck

I hope that you are right, Wael!
But, I predict a blowout in favor of Rybka?

Regards,
Mike

As I stated elsewhere, I hope that little fish gets cooked. Reminds me of Ali vs. Frazier 2,
"And Down goes Frazier". However I don't think it will be a "Thriller in Manila".
But dam, I sure do hope so! I wish we had a "Howard Cosell" for this fight.
"And Down goes Rybka".
