Hi

Among the top programs I think Shredder has the worst opening book (I do not
mean to offend any of the makers of Shredder's book). Just look at the israeli
chess league games. You will see that Shredder did not get an advantage in the
opening as white or an equality as black.

I don't know the book used in London but Shredder 4 book is not as good as the
other top rpograms book.

The 100 elo points idea does not indicate that Shredder is 100 points stronger
than Fritz but that it MIGHT be 100 point stronger than Fritz if Stefan has the
support of an organization like Chessbase.
