Tanya,

Not sure I can add anything more than the other posts.  I can only speak
about results and Deep Fritz has not given a performance greater than
DB97 yet.  My opinion is that Deep Junior on a 8xPIII 1GHZ would be very
close to DB97 performance, this may also be true for Deep Fritz, Deep Shredder,
Chess Tiger (smp or single), Rebel Century (smp or single), Hiarcs, and perhaps
others.

If the same match conditions for DB97 could be set up, then my opinion is that
an equivelant 8xPIII 2GHZ could produce superior results than DB97.  However,
the PIV does not appear to provide equal GHZ to GHZ performance with the PIII
and I doubt that the PIII will ever get to 2GHZ.

The Deep Fritz match is much tougher "match conditions", so it will be
interesting.  :)

Finally,  we will never know.  DB97 no longer plays so all comparison is
speculation and any future DB chip by HSU will be superior to DB97, in my
opinion.  :)

Best Regards,
Chris Carson
