I run a Gountlet tournament yesterday:
60/game, 16Mb for each engine, Junior book, Celeron 500.
F6b ws others like Hiarcs 7.32, Junior 6a, Crafty 17.11 and Fritz 5.32.
I had to stop it to give my son a possibility to play "Heroes of Might and
Magic", but after 4 rounds the typical result was 3-1 in favor of Fritz 6b.
