I would say at least 150 rating points. I have Nimzo 8 for two years and a new
update was never released or a newer version has not been released either.

PS: I can predict that if Ninzo 9 is ever released on CD it will be as strong as
the top two programs from the SSDF, and it will have a much bigger sale than
providing it with the cards being used for Brutus. Also I don't think that 4
cards with brutus are stronger than the latest Dual Opteron with Shredder or
Fritz.
