Deep Fritz is no better on a dual than on a single, it was designed to run on
both. It even get's worse sometimes on a dual, than on a single, so until they
make a version with proper SMP support, don't buy Deep Fritz for dual purposes.

In my tests Fritz 7 is stronger than Deep Fritz by an "acceptable" margain for a
new version.
