No error in the link. In the Niggemann page for information about the
programs, there are some amazing numbers in the ELO's of the programs.
For example they give Chess Tiger 15 as 2600(SSDF)!? Also they give the newest
Shredder 8.0 that has an ELO of 2650(SSDF)!!??, Ruffian 2.0 a random number
of 2700, Deep Fritz 8 a 2700 ELO in a 3.06PIV, Deep Junior 8 a 2600 ELO on a P3
and generally all the ELO's are almost random.
