Sarah what I meant by saying that he was correct is that the playing strength
is not too significant, but with the default settings at that time control using
my AMD Athlon 800 MHz, Deep Fritz is slightly better, whereas, using his
small adjustment Gambit Tiger II after 44 games is leading by 4 games. I am
still testing it right now.
