Even if it does suddenly appear I won't purchase it. The author is very disrespectful to his customers, Is Vas in a Coma?? He doesn't respond to inquiries, he ignores allegations of clones, when he does say something it is always glib and vague, this guy must be the worst businessman the chess community has ever seen. I sincerly hope another programmer who is more responsive to his customer base surpasses rybka. That person will definitely get my business.

I do not buy a program because i like or dislike the businessman.
If a strong Rybka 4 is for sale i will buy it. I enjoy all of
Vas products far.
Best to you,
Gerold.

Rybka is already in my black list and the only reason to keep it in my rating list is to watch it go down by other engines....

"Other engines" . Cruel, cruel.go down by other engines....
In my opinion, Rybka 4 = Duke Nukem Forever......
Actually, I will probably buy Aquarium 4 w/ R4 when it/if it comes out, but mostly for Aquarium's analysis features.

"Please, sir, I want some more."
I suspect that Vas is trying to find a strategy to make reverse engineering of his product more difficult. That is what I would be doing if I were in his shoes.
