Hi!

I don't believe Tiger on an Athlon 1333 is better then Deep-x on a 8x700Xeon.
If we had reasons to believe that Tiger on a single could compare vs Deepx8,
Tiger had been invited. For me it sounds absolutely unrealistic.
It is possible that Tiger/Gambit is better on a single cpu but I don't believe
it could be with say a 100+ margin.
