No, I _don't_ find the program that beats me the fastest to be the best program, I find it the most irritating, and the one I'm least likely to use. It's no good to me if it crushes the life out of me before I get a good game going. That's not a very interesting game at all. I've never heard anything about how Fritz 6 is the strongest. Pete
