Shredder sure is hard to beat. It just became world championship.

I don't see why 10 games at your place would proof anything.
there are more chessprograms as fritz and shredder.

Despite a superb book in this WMCC sure.

Note that fritz5 at the 97 wmcc sure didn't have a book that well.
Except for Nimzobook hardly any book at paris 97 was kicking butt.

chessbase support doesn't do much. chessbase only sells.

Kure makes the book, Morsch makes the engine. it's only those 2 guys who
decide what strength fritz has.

Matthias Feist is the GUI programmer. He operates Fritz usual. He's a real
cool guy. If he does something real stupid wrong, then fritz might crash,
forfeit or do a stupid move, so he's more or less also someone who must not
deliver bad work.

The other 20 chessbase dudes are just salesmen and a few or one of them
owner. I'm not sure who owns chessbase. Wuellenweber?
