Still, my guess is Deep Fritz. >> >>*** Djordje I do understand your methodological concern, but pray tell me which other program (apart from a SMP version of Fritz or DJ) could be 120 pts above Shredder 4? I believe that Chessbits have been doing this testing merely to experiment, and that's why they haven't released official data. As the SMP version of a program is supposed to be about 1.5-1.7 (depending on the efficacy of the implementation), that would put the actual ELO margin at about 70. The question to answer is: WHICH other program could have made such a staggering jump? Thank _you_ for discussing the matter provokingly. I still think that we would have made a couple of lousy sleuths :-) *** Djordje
