I seem to remember a few people saying this.  Thing is, the results with shorter
time controls are also of interest, especially to somebody who plays only blitz
games against programs and does nothing else with them.  I'd be one of
those--perhaps the only one here that falls into that category.

It is interesting for me to read about all the tournaments and all the results,
even though I couldn't care if Shredder is 100 points lower or higher.  I'd be
more interested in playing style.  Well, the interface is of importance, but of
secondary importance.  It would be nice if Gambit Tiger, Tiger 13, and Century 3
would fit into the Fritz interface.  And it would be nice if we could take the
chessmaster boards and put them in the Fritz interface.
