I agree. Shortly after the so called Fritz 'e' was released I ran a lot of games
between the versions dated 23 Jan 2000, 9 April 2000 and 16 Dec 2000 (e) and the
version dated 9 April 00 came out easily the winner. I know this doesn't mean to
much but I believe it to be the strongest engine of the three.

If you have Norton Utilities I recomend using the disk editor instead of a hex
editor as this leaves the original dates and times intact.
