Well said, here is another interesting quote:

Q:How would you evaluate the strength of the chess programs you are going to
compete with and do you see the differences between the programs which may
influence your play one way or another?

In my opinion they are extremely strong, I’d say about 2700 or even higher. I
don’t see a big difference between the programs, although I’m pretty sure all of
them have their stronger and weaker sides.
