Fritz 6a seems to be much better than the older version or Fritz 5.32 and is at
the moment the strongest program. Shredder 4 has the best GUI and plays a strong
and good Chess. The style of S4 is much better than the older S3, because it
plays much aggressiver. Hiarcs 7.32 is not yet an oldie and was the big surprise
at this tournament. Perhaps it plays much better at the K6-3 or were the great
results here only a random!? Junior 6a was the negative surprise; it seems to
play on longer time controlls much weaker as general except or plays it better
on Intel!? Nimzo 7.32 disapointed once more, but it is much stronger in endgames
than the older Nimzo 2000 or N99. Tiger 12e is a strong and impressive newcomer,
but with too little theory. The Opening Book is too small and the table bases
for the endgames are not supported.
