In the 1st round of the ongoing World Cup Hou missed a chance to equalise the match.
On my dual core Houdini takes just 13 secs to find the winning 30.Rxg7!
How long does it take Rybka on your faster machines?

Oh well, 13 seconds seem just too fast, Rybka Dynamic takes 19 to find it.

Is R4 still thinking?
:
No, if an engine doesn't find a move in 1 minute, then it's not good for the position for me.
Sometimes the move is interactive and no engine is good for it, but in this case I can rest knowing firing up Rybka Dynamic in the position would suffice.
