Hello Georg

I do not own the Tiger2 but as long as you can start it two times there should
be no problem. I did this with several other programms (Shredder, 6 or 7 engines
with the Chessbase GUI) without any problems.
The only thing you have to pay attention for is of course 'Ponder off' and set
the speed for your seriall connection as high as possible. The cable should be
no problem. You have to bye a so called x-Modem cable (Send and receive is
crossed).
Thats it.

The only problem is (but with two machines it is the same) that on short time
controlls (e.g. 5min.) the two programs have at the end different times left.
But try it bye yourself. I enjoyd this very much even if the results are not
very reliable.

Bye
Ingo Bauer
