the more they argue that fritz is disadvantaged on k6, the more they commit that
all other programs are disadvantages on intel-cpu's in sweden.

So their EVIDENCE for disadvantage against fritz turns into disadvantages of all
other programs on intel cpu's.

I see no sense in this kindergarden-game.
When fritz is faster on intel, than it is unfair to give all other programs
intel, when they run better on k6.

What is fair ?!
Difficult to say. IMO k6 or intel, when fritz loses it has to do with the
program and not the cpu.
Today fritz5 has to play against caissa.
Although it is "disadvantaged", i hope it can win.
If it will not win :-))) it should maybe better try to play draughts or go.
