I will take a look, but I am sure, it will only be preliminary. Also, at first glance, Fritz and Hiarcs look to be above, Junior may be close, Shredder and GTiger may be below. There is no additional data on GTiger, so that one may not have any relevance at this time. We will see and ofcourse I will show Program/HW/TPR/SSDF/Time Control. I will try to get this done sometime today or tomorrow, however, it is in my off hours that I do this, so something might come up and delay the posting. I would say that the comps and GM's were competitive with each other, however, each has weakness that can be exploited by the other, which is why it is still interesting. It may not be competitive with mid 2600 GM's 3 years from now.
