Hi

I did a quick nunn2 match between Shredder Classic and Shredder 6.02
(Padderborn). Timecontrol was 5 min/game on a 850MHz PIII with 32MB tt for both,
ponder off.

Result:
Shredder Classic - Shredder 6.02 19.0-21.0 (+11,=16,-13) TP=-17 Elo
68%->[-71,+19], 95%->[-128,+57]
(Numbers from Shredder Classic (gui))

I have not too much faith in sudden death games between comps. When I look at
the play in longer (long=many moves) games the result seems to be much by
'luck'. The score can swing +-2 points at the end. As a match the result is ok,
but that wasn't the test.
I run the same setup with 5'+10 to compare.
