Thanks to testing, we (so far seem to know) that it is weaker. Would YOU have known, by reading the above advertisement? Do you claim that Chessbase KNEW it was weaker, and "not (intended) for one processor", but FORGOT to mention it? Is that your claim? THAT, would be insane, so to speak. > >After the next SSDF list probably Deep Fritz will get hurt because of this >detail It will be easy to put a note on that rating, that it is on one processor, then rate it on a dual in the future. >; but i really think that ChessBase deserves it. You think they deserve to be punished, because they were not more secretive, by forbidding it to be tested on a single, after they advertise that it will run on that, without a warning? Why don't you say "hurray", because testing has revealed some facts? > >A. Ponti
