I don't. I was the only or one of the few who did not follow the Tiger hype. I
always wanted to SEE. Now I have seen. My opinion:
Tiger is VERY strong, no doubt. As I wrote, in the same group with Shredder4,
Junior6, probably Fritz6 and probably Hiarcs7.32 and Nimzo7.32, not to forget
Rebel.

But Tiger is NOT superior, neither a bit nor clearly.
