Subject: news from gandalf......

Hi,
   few mins ago, i was watching some games played by the beta version of
chesstiger in chessnet vs an account called FRITZ-X, as i was talking to the
operator of the FRITZ-X, he told me that he is a beta-tester for chessbase, but
at that moment he was using gandalf (betaversion) to play against
chesstiger(beta) (account G-N-U).
So I ask him , whats his impression about gandalf, as a beta tester of
chessbase.
he told me that gandalf is likely stronger than fritz6a but not as strong as
fritz 7.
he also told me that fritz7 is a dual processor version of fritz6a.

with all said gandalf won 2 games in a row against chesstiger.....(beta).
ofcourse gandalf had hardware edge...:)

here are the games
