I understand that vincent believes that Fritz7 is going to win every game.

I believe Fritz7 is going to win but not every game and my guess is a score of
6.5-3.5 for Fritz7.

I believe that the engine is the main adavnatgae of Fritz7 and I expect Fritz7
also to win nunn matches against Fritz3 with better hardware with almost the
same scores.

Note that I do not have Fritz7 so it is only a guess but I do not believe the
stories about the big advantage of the book of Fritz7a and the main advantage of
Fritz7a if you do not consider the engine is learning but I doubt if learning is
going to be significant in a short match of 10 games.
