Hello, I´m not a fool, I know the testing procedure and I know that it´s good to play versus H6 because he has played so many games before. But I, and I´m sure very much other people, are interested in seeing actual games (fast hardware and good programs as Fritz 3, H7, J5 and so on). This is interesting. Not boring matches versus P90 or Fritz 3 or next time maybe Fritz 1 or Mephisto I? By the way, also a match new program against predecessor says nothing even if the predecessor has 10.000 rated games, because most programs are tuned against itself. So a 20-3 win for example of H7-H6 says nothing about the overall strength. As you see, Shredder3 beats the predecessor Shredder 2 clearly and it must be much stronger. Unfortunately Shredder 2 gains much more points as the new version against H7!! What does this say to us...? So I think a match CM6000-H6 on P200 is much more interesting than a match on P90. And H6 on P200 has enough games for a clear rating. And what does a little bit of rating oscillation during the testing procedure matter? But I´m sure the swedes will test all on P200. Maybe in 5 years... I don´t want to hurt anybody, I´m only tired to boring results. Marcus
