Subject: Pocket Fritz Strength

Hi all,

I had always assumed that Pocket Fritz running on a 206MHz PocketPC was much
stronger at blitz than any of the dedicated computers of the past. I was
surprised when I played a match between Pocket Fritz and a Mephisto Genius 68030
(SSDF about 2200) and got the following result:

+4 =4 -4

The games were played at 15/0.

It would be interesting to see how a match at longer time controls would work
out, but I don't have the time for that...

Is the Genius module particularly good at this time control or did I have an
inflated view of the strength of Pocket Fritz? If I has guessed before hand I
would have expected a couple of draws for the Genius module at best ...

Peter.
