Hi,

thank you for sharing your results. They seem to confirm what i ever thought, so Rybka is very strong in the endgame and Houdini is strong only in easy endgames but weak in strategical endgames.

Note, that in this famous position

[d]8/5pk1/r5pp/P7/3R3P/6P1/5PK1/8 w - - 0 1

both played Rd5 and won! Probably it's also winning (sooner or later black is in zugzwang).
