Could be, but knowing Marcus' testing conditions I doubt it. He tests on a dual
Celeron 5xx machine, which means that the SMP Shredder would take both
processors and the opponents would play on a P266. Not a good way to test, and
Marcus is accurate.

Same problem with Fritz 7 and Deep Junior. What's left, then, aside from Nimzo 8
and Shredder 5? Hmmm... my feminine intuition tells me it is not Shredder.
