What's the point of just the idea?) that both DJ and DF should play a short match each with one, or both Tigers. Or a different top program, as that would be more entertaining as well as more scientific and informative in its testing. Scientifically, as an experiment, it is much too close to decide from. But that doesn't necesarily mean that one isn't stronger than the other. So by testing both against Tiger(s) you will see if one clearly handles Tiger better than the other. AND you might even see that Tiger itself looks better than both. If you must, do it with Shredder 5, OR, also with Shredder. S.Taylor
