I heard the same incredulous and burlesque posts when Vas announced here about how strong was his beta Rybka was, years ago.
Being a naive and good natured man, I do not reject nothing until a real proof and no only jokingkly remarks are presented.
Maybe my sin is to be somewhat stupid, but that is not that bad after all.

It's completely different to say that i have an engine that is 50 points stronger than Rybka 3 than saying that i have a 128 bit engine that beats in every game Rybka 3 but FBI forbids me to make it available.
The first can happen the second has some things inside it(128 bit is a good start) that just are obvious nonsense.

Re: Toby Tal history according his author
Certainly they are different cases, but I hold my judgement about this because there is a chance that there is something in that pretensions, if not all of them.
