Both, the second and the third game were quite interesting and very close.
Grizzly is no weaky - I was very much impressed by the Tiger performance here !
Still Grizzly won ; is Zephyr weak ? Or Blikskottel ? What was their score ? I
wanted to have a little fun ; beating the Tiger on the 1000* hardware shows that
there has been some "magic" barrier passed - only Grizzly succeeded.

Well - it's too early for any conclusion IMHO . My personal guess is that the
Palm Tiger is about the same strength as the Novag Diamond/Sapphire. When it is
about the WinBoard engines being able to beat the Tiger even if on some insane
Athlon 1300++ against some miserable Palm Vx - seems to be some _real_ challenge
still , huh ?
