With faster system and fritz7 being optimized for SMP, it should overall be a very interesting game. In a personal conversation with an strong GM in ICS, he told me about his experience against Strong chess computer programs, and he notified me that Fritz7 has given him the most hardest time during his practice match and perhaps plays better against human than any other chess programs out there (in his opinion CT 14 was in second place, and he was not impressed with GT's style :) ), Also he said Shredder6 was his worst opponent. pavs
