The evaluations are Shredder's subjective view of the "world", sometimes correct, sometimes wrong - and often optimistic (see the +1.92 at moves 38 and 39 versus Jonny). For me it was especially interesting to see, how far they differed from the evaluations of me "old" Shredder 7.04 on a "slow" 900 MHz mono-AMD. >But if you look at >the game, you'll see what I mean.
