I have reasons to believe that Fritz is always better than shredder on identical machine. Fritz6 is better than shredder4 based on the ssdf list(shredder4 that was hiding under the name 204 was only slightly better than Fritz5.32) Deep Fritz is also clearly better than shredder5.32 based on the results that I see. I have reasons to believe that all the top programs are on the ssdf list and we only do not get information about shredder5's rating but shredder was never number 1 except some championships and I believe that the main reason was simply better opening preperation of the shredder's team and some luck.
