Kurt:

My impression is that some people here at CCC wish to determine for themselves
whether or not the Fritz8 engine is identical to the Fritz7 engine.  Only
testing will answer this question, since the Fritz programmers do not post
bulletins here.  If a large number of games are played and one of the engines
wins by a large margin, then it would be probable that the two engines are
different.

If Fritz8 is just a Fritz7 modified to make it do better against humans, then it
may actually do worse against Fritz7 unmodified.  That may not be such a bad
thing.

It's all about marketing and capture of market share.
