Kurt I find it interesting that running time control in analysis fritz gives
best performance over all of the engines, including Shredder 7.04. To me that is
the qualification for the program with the best chess knowledge. Other programs
might be better than Fritz8 at discrete time controls but for long time thinking
Fritz8 has no equal.
Crafty is also good and once in a while suggests a better move than Fritz, but
when I play Crafty against Fritz in long time control where I force the move at
level 18-20 depending on engine output Fritz8 wins.

Thanks
