Well you test it against whaty you have because you want to see if it is really
better than the old version.  Believe it or not some programs have come out
claiming to be 70 points better than the previous version and after testing it
was discovered it was not any better than the previous version.
So far Fritz 7 is at the top of my Database "ELO" list.  It is ahead of Chess
Tiger and Gambit Tiger by about 14/15 points.  So far I only have about 114
games vs Chess Tiger,Gambit Tiger,Deep Shredder, Junior 7 and Century 4 at time
controls of longer than 1 hour/game.
