It is not Shredder. The third thing is not an "real" engine, which means that it would not be able to find a good move in a given position without the help of somebody else. It can only decide which suggested move is better. >b) If it is Schredder or just a version of it, I suppose it just choose the move >that fits whith his internal preference, Yes, I also guess this is what would happen. > but then we have Schreder again playing >the game, or almost, exception made of cases where no of the other two engines >propose a move likable for Schredder. >c) If it is not, how this entity compares with Schredder IF two top programs are >harnessed toguether?

Right now I can't plug Fritz or Junior or Tiger or Rebel into the system, but I hope that this will change soon... >All this is important to me because I cannot see another reason to purchase the >new version as much as I already have Schredder 4 and he is more than enough to >kick my ass. So I need a very good reason to twist the arm of my common sense. In my opinion Shredder5 is worth upgrading even without the triple brain. But please don't ask me if you should upgrade as the answer will be obvious, nevertheless I will try to answer your questions as objective as possible. Stefan
