Howdy, I just got my Tiger 2 days ago and am very satisfied. First opions are;

1. GUI is good but there are some features I like in Fritzies GUI
2. Mr Tiger is not a t op Blitzer. But I dont care, i suspected it was not and
that is not the reason for my purchase.
3. More important, It appears to be every bit as strong in _longer_ time
controls as I had hoped. I think it is a tad stronger (very small tad perhaps)
than my fritz6a. But of course This can only be a guess based on a few games
played with a friend who has fritz6a.
