Nono, Ed -

ain't no reason for tears concerning Tiger -

the value of the prog is known and widely accepted.

( At least : just now - as it has been ported to be a "CB native" whatever this
crucial word construction may mean - )

I'm very satisfied - that Johan's prog has won the competition - even more as
the settings were almost identical to the original ones.

I've been testing and reviewing this product line since way back when to the
times of a CM 4000 -
and always have spotted the enormeous potential of this engine -

whilst other so calles experts enyjoyed the paying audience with slapsticks like
"Master of the bugs" - "toy" - and, of course, screenshots with Figurines of
dragons and stuff to underline their........qualification.......

beein' here, it's also ( IMHO ) high time to applaude Lex for his forsight
qualities concerning Deep Sjeng.

( Typically ) in German Comp Chess NG's there was an imbecile babbling
'roundabout this prog - before Leiden....

"...inacceptable price - only acceptable for a top engine
( ? - what's that ? )
...not even a CB native..." ( here we go again - tossin' and turnin' - I sure do
know what "CB" means -
and I know the - real - meaning of "native" - but this in a combination
- Holy Cow -

what does all this teach us ?
Put the blame on the Swiss Tournament rules........they've spoilt it all again.

==> THIS argument is NOT valid, in case Fritz would ever.........ect;

for this we gotta choose : "deserved".

Great world -

( did the CB boxes get their Corn Flakes today ? )
