The Deep-Fritz-version that played in Cadaques was about 30% slower then todays Deep-Fritz. I have heard that it should be clearly better positionally. The results against the other top-programs (Tiger, Junior and Shredder) (if true) are also clearly better then Deep-Fritz of today. Anyway Kramnik is Kramnik and of course he is much better then the best dutch players. Bertil
