I started a 100 game match a few days ago with Fritz 8 one of many test I have run with Shredder 7....both programs playing with the same book and playing in chessbase. Book learning is the same, opening book is the same,hash tables are the same, Shredder is still winning. IMO in testing Shredder 7, Shredder is the better program, and wins because of that fact alone. 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 1 Shredder 7.04 ½½1½11011001???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? 7.5/12 2 Fritz 8 ½½0½00100110???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? 4.5/12
