Second: there are a lots of engines showing no difference in playing strenght. If programmers a willing and able to optmize their engines for fritz they could do this. Borgstädt did it for Goliath, Kai Skibbe for gromit, other examples are Anmon, Faile or TCB. The Natives and wb-adapter-versions of these engines are quite at the same level in pratice, did you try one of them? But if you like to hold on you big brother theories, feel free ... Christian
