And usually I do not go back and check variations with other programs. (And for how long should I let the programs look at the positions?) If you play against Fritz or even more so Tiger, they select the most sharp variations that often hangs on one tempo, while a human and Rebel would select the safer and normally longer route to victory. I belive Fritz and Tiger are extending a lot more in forsed variations than Rebel, making them play more computer like.
