To get staistical relevance, yes, there is no way than play at least 500 or
better 1000 games each program. *I* won't do that, takes FAR too long. BUT I
will get an <i>idea</i> in which direction to think. And I will repeat the
openings after each run so that direct comparison is possible.

Notice that this is the first time this kind of test is done. Unbelievable.
Seems as if "Best-for-Fritz" and this kind of "tests" (I won't write it down
what my word for these tests is...) finally have won... maybe time to leave
computerchess soon.

The translation into English is complete now and will be online late this
evening or tomorrow morning.

Have fun.
