IMHO, even more interesting is Fritz-2. It reaches even higher depths than
Fritz-1. I think, that Fritz-2 will also easily beat Fritz-7 regarding depths.
In a match however, the old Fritzes are without chances against Fritz-7; there
was too much knowledge missing. E.g. I'm sure that implementation of the simple
square rule in pawn endings had to wait for Fritz-3.

Fritz-2 was also the tactical wizard those days. Therefore, I guess that Fritz-2
would still be a challenge for many amateurs of today.
