Eric Hallsworth's Selective search list has the Atlanta at 2232..
however this list is as of 2001
the sample size used by the Swedes for the SS is only 177 games
all in all i agree with the German chess computer site which shows the Atlanta
at 2196
and the SS is certainly right along side it

however computer VS. computer tests tell's verylittle(in my opinion)about how
the computer will play against humans

Kittingers programs are more active and lively against human's and i think make
for a more tactical,slugfest type of battle
for my money SS is harder to beat and more fun to play against
