Subject: SSDF can't wait to test certain Programs; is there a Conspiracy ?

All that I can conclude by reading different messages by SSDF tester is that
they can't wait for the Rebel Tiger 13.0 patch to be released in order to start
testing the new Tiger. Deep Fritz and Rebel Century 3 has been tested with more
than three programs each. I understand that Nimzo 8 was released to the SSDF
testers at the same time that Deep Fritz was released, but for some reason none
of the testers have started to test Nimzo 8 yet. They have to understand that
nimzo program has a lot of customers who are just waiting for the SSDF to start
testing the new version before they can upgrade to the new Nimzo 8. Why are they
so impatient to get their hands on the patch for Rebel Tiger 13.0 and
Chessmaster 8 when there is an excellent program by Dr. Crilly Donninger sitting
in the tester desk collecting dust.

PS: I just figured out the annoying MFC42.DLL conflicts with Nimzo8.dll it was
due to an outdated driver for my video card, that was incompatible with Windows
ME. Now I am back doing my own private test against Junior 6, and it is winning
by a slight margin using the standard SSDF time control. This time I am using my
newer AMD Athlon 800 MHz, which seems to benefit Nimzo 8 more than using an
inferior AMD K6-2 500 MHz.
