What's the definition of REMOTE Rybka?

And this feature on Extreme Rybka: " Use the computers on your home network or connect to computers via the Internet to increase the analysis power!" Isn't this already the idea under Remote Rybka?

this refers to Convekta's networking tools I assume.

Hmmm Wasn't I playing with a Rybka 3 Extreme on PCC?My re-named Rybka hehe. Using other comps via internet is interesting maybe there is an IP tool to connect addresses.

This is Rybka 4 Aquarium rebranded by USCF.
Parent - - By Banned for Life (Gold) Date 2010-07-05 20:12
The box is misleading on several levels. It implies a different Rybka and there is no way to tell that it includes aquarium. Of course the USCF is not known for transparency...

Then again, I think Rybka Extreme would have been a great name for Remote Rybka.
Parent - - By Felix Kling (Gold) [de] Date 2010-07-05 21:59
I prefer something more serious, like Rybka online, Rybka live, ...
Parent - - By Uly (Gold) [mx] Date 2010-07-05 22:11
I still have to read a name with a "Punch", Rybka Extreme had it.
Parent - - By yanquis1972 (****) [us] Date 2010-07-07 03:05
extreme is a bit cornball; i agree with felix.
Parent - - By Uly (Gold) [mx] Date 2010-07-07 08:45
Well, I didn't say it was the best name possible, just the best I've heard so far.

The rest are prone to misinterpretation because such words are already used in different context, I imagine conversations like:

Dude1: Do you use Rybka Online?

Dude2: Yeah, I connect to the internet and surf web pages while Rybka analyzes in the background.

Dude1: No, I mean, do you use Rybka Live?

Dude2: I use it in real time, is there another way to use it?

Dude1: Ehh, I want to know if you use Remote Rybka.

Dude2: Oh yeah, I use Rybka remotely to connect several computers and enhance my IDEA analysis.

Dude1: :mad:

...

Now:

Dude1: Do you use Rybka Extreme?

Dude2: Ah, that service of Vas where you rent hardware and get access to his latest build? Well, nope.

Dude1: Dude, where's my car?

I'd like a name that is unambiguous, though now that Extreme was already used by a Rybka related service, it's out of the question, but something like it, perhaps not as "corn ball".

I would go for Rybka 2FX (2FX goes all the way back to an early Apple computer and stands for Too Fucking Expensive).

Rybka *Extreme* insults the intelligence of its client base of course. I don't know about you but I don't usually buy something based on self-appreciating adjectives. Now, I know Rybka is a fine product and also currently the highest rated (C) program, but....wouldn't someone savy enough to buy from the USCF already know of its ultimateness. I would imagine, as a rule,
adding gimmicky superlatives to a product most likely detracts serious or professional players from purchases.
Parent - By Uly (Gold) [mx] Date 2010-08-27 06:24
It seems like a smart move from them, see their potential customers:

1.- People like you, that don't care about the name.

2.- Other people that buy it based on the products' name (and yes, those customers exist! Otherwise no software would use catchy names).

They hit 1 by having a great product, and 2 with the attention-getting name.
Parent - - By Banned for Life (Gold) Date 2010-08-27 06:32
The name has been shortened from the longer, more descriptive:

Rybka 5, "Now, It's better than as SEX!"

and for a limited time, with every purchase, you will receive tips on how to capture your very own mate. LOL

"so feverishly hot even your pieces will lose their sand!"

HAHAHA, you can't tell me that wouldn't be anything but great!

" Rybka Aether"

Would fit perfectly into the annual of  "Aether Madness"  by Michael Stein and Gary Wolf.

"..Among the natives visited were UFO zealots, musicologists, sexual exhibitionists, cyber-vangelists" and, now computer chess junkies. Willing to commit just about any heinous crime to have some time on  Rybka Aether!

Extreme Rybka4, thinking deep thoughts! I'm not talking SNL here! Don't be fooled into believing that  it has just stopped making moves in the middle of a game, its in EXTREME DEEP THOUGHT. Be one of the many who wait with bated breath for its " Extreme" infusion of Deep Analytical thinking" as deep as, YES! Depths of 18-19-20-and "21", with a raging climatic dive into Depths of "25-26-and (damn!!!) "28". It can do it! I've seen  it happen!

This chess engine will  have you sitting on the edge of your computer chair.

P.S.
You need the Little Rybka Decoder Ring in order for this product to "really" work!

entertaining jokes, but on a serious note, what is Rybka 4 Extreme?  I ask this as a potential customer, since I own Deep Rybka 3 with aquarium and want to make an informed decision about upgrading.  The USCF advertisement says it includes all the latest publishing, IDea and networking analysis - which suggests it is, in fact, the latest version of Aquarium.  If this is so, then why is the asking price only $59.95.  If I buy Deep Rybka 4 with the latest aquarium it costs over $120. So apparently Rybka 4 Extreme is not likely to contain all the features as Deep Rybka with Aquarium.  Very confusing.
Parent - By Uly (Gold) [mx] Date 2010-09-22 22:20
My guess it's that Rybka 4 Extreme only includes the single processor version of Rybka 4, and you should be able to bought that for the same price.
