And I would not be satisfied with only a few elo points (e.g. 5-10) over Fritz. That could still go either way if it is only that. But it should be not quite possible for Fritz to even overtake Tiger 15 with its Fritz 8.0, which is already being discussed, and might be out soon, who knows! AND, and this is a bit too intellectual for some people here, it seems.....AND, I'm saying, if it is only a FEW elo points above Fritz, it still might be weaker than Fritz in MANY positions, and I like to know that it does NOT have those weaknesses.
