Subject: Tiger Installation

Received Tiger past Wednesday as promised by Steve. Well Packaged to get to
Calif.
Installed Tiger 13 without deleting Tiger 12. Bad Result. I looked for new
Tiger13 icon. none. I clicked on T12 icon and there I found the two Tigers,
_but_ same ole T12 GUI.
I read posts by Sarah responding to a thread describing some GUI features that I
did not have.
Further I played some fast blitz games on yahoo 5 min and was getting results
against fritzy6 that was not good, And I was dissapointed in the same ole GUI of
T12.

I decided to try a long shot. I deleted F6 and T13 and reinstalled T13, Walla,
here come the Tiger Roaring just like Sarah said. Brand new GUI, I love it,
better than Fritzy except for _no_ space bar to force move, which is a
outstanding feature in fritzy for fast program switching.

Back to Yahoo, I am getting Fangtastic results with 13 on yahoo at a game time
control of game in 2 min, inc 4.

I do not know why except prob. wrong book originally, or some other installation
conflict or just plain ole statistics but I do not think that is the case Cause
the re-installed T13 is awesome, period.

I Thank Christophe for his efforts.
I have never in the years of participating at CCC talked about another program
in these terms not even Fritzy. But T13 is something else.

bye 4 now
