I hope that you are right about tiger but unfortunately the rebel site does not agree with you. see http://www.rebel.nl/r11.htm If you go down at this site to 9.10 you can see that the jump in tiger is estimated as only 50-70 elo so they do not think that tiger made the same jump. Other results that I saw suggest that at least at shorter time control tiger is at the same level of fritz6a or slightly better but not 100 elo better. It means that the Rebel site is probably correct. I like christophe but I have to support the truth. I do not say nothing about shredder5 but only about tiger because I saw no results of shredder5.
