Yes.  But they will never answer.  I've written TO chessbase, and never got a
decent answer.

Not that I know of.  But I don't know anyone who talks to them.

I have tried.  They don't have very good customer service.

It's just bad programming.  And I will continue to think so, until someone from
Chessbase can explain to me otherwise.

HUM.  I said deep fritz's SMP code sucked.  I like Deep Fritz though.

You're never going to get a better answer though.

>sure seems that deep fritz could be stronger with 1.7x instead of about 1.2x

Of course.  That's about 50 ELO.  But like GCP said, on Frans computers, it does
SEEM to be gettng 1.7x speedup or so.  But I think he's been using a new
version.
