I believe: Tactial strength Fritz 3.000 Shredder 2.900 Positional strength Fritz 2.300 Shredder 2.400 And 100 ELO more positional strength is better against human because in tactial games we have maybe 20 programs which are better then Kramnik. But Kramnik is 400 ELO better in positional strength. I think the best programs have not more as 2.400 ELO in correspondence chess. Maybe not more then 2.350 ELO ... I don't know. But this is my private opinion and I think also Fritz is better since version 5.32 in positional strength but not better then Tiger, Shredder and Gandalf. Maybe Junior is at the moment the best program for strategy and tactic, also better then Fritz in tactic and startegy but Junior is compare to Gandalf in endgame not so strong then the others. Best Frank
