It's good to hear he uses Hiarcs, and expected really but Houdini, that makes me cringe.

It's not Anand's intention but it promotes derivitives. This issue will never go away. It really hurts computer chess.

Almost every GM has either heard of or uses Houdini today. This applies to many players below that level as well. Derivate it may be, but its already well promoted.
