Impossible to know which is stronger. DJ and Fritz8 are like an orange and an
apple and we cannot tell which is better. As far as I know, DJ has different
strength and Fritz8 has different strength especially in playing style. In other
words, DJ's playing style is similarly to Kasparov's playing style whereas
Fritz8's is similar to Kramnik's. Besides, perhaps many tests from computer vs
computer matches so far has not given satisfactory results. Therefore, we do not
need to expect so much from that. Lastly, they are not perfect. :)
