It gives excellent support Guenther but you have to use Winboard to appreciate
the genius of that wonderful piece of software.  It is almost on par with Fruit!

Well, not really but it is up there....

Likewise.  Well not 000's but certainly more than 3,000.

I love Winboard and Rybka works very well there.  Hmmmm, so does Fruit, Shredder
(6, 7, 8 and 9) Little Goliath, Shredder 3 (as a Winboard engine - yes I am that
old!) etc.  Darn if the stone age gui doesn't just keep going on and on..


Later.
