During the beta testing of Tiger I have been playing tons of blitz games between
Tiger and several other programs, including H732 and S4. Tiger won all the
overnight sessions, but I didn't keep track of the scores because I was more
interested in looking for bugs in auto232. And the hard disk of my P500 broke
last night, so the games are lost forever. :((((((((((
