actually shredder has been the best ,but i believe that the tiger will catch him
in time for the world championship .as for the other programs the king never
plays in the world championships any more .nimzo is rather weak at least too
weak to win vs shredder and tiger and fritz .hiarcs there have been no
improvements or upgrades for a while 7.32 is all there is?????
