In Response To: Throw away your Snowie and GNU (Rich Munitz)

I have to believe that $50 to run rollouts 5-10 times faster is a bargain to some people.

Absolutely. But one has to be sure not to compare apples and oranges. S far as I can judge the gnubg code is pretty fast and I can't imagine that that a factor 5-10 could be achieved without giving up something. The only thing I can imagine is that they made some progress in variance reduction.
