After what I have seen in my own games, there are several engines of roughly
equivalent strength: Deep Fritz, F6a/b, Tiger 13, Gambit, Shredder 5, Junior 6
and probably also Gandalf 4.32g. In my opinion, there are more significant
differences in playing style and GUI than in strength. This has probably been
always the case, but now it is more obvious than ever before.

About the latest Gandalf 4.32g, it is scoring impressively against Deep Fritz
and Tiger 13. Some comments, games and results have been posted on
http://f22.parsimony.net/forum41668/  I find it not only strong but brilliant.
And no, I refuse to say it is a  "new paradigm". :)
