Time will tell... let >stop speculations! :) I missed this thread, so maybe someone has already pointed this yet, but I'll say it anyway: 1. This has been discussed here many times. 2. You can speculate on the strength of Fritz at 200Mnps under some certain circumstances you should state before speculating, but you can't speculate on Fritz running on DB hardware. That makes absolutely no sense at all. The closer you can get to that concept is "give Frans the same resources the DB team had and let's see if he can build a stronger machine". DB hardware is not a general purpose PC. José C.
