Hello Rob, I've played 70 games between them at various time controls (F5.32/N99a). The score I have is 27.5-42.5. This leaves Nimzo 99a about 80 points below Fritz 5.32 right now in my machines. I ran the games on a PII 333 vs a K6-2-350. I ran all the games with Nimzo 99a on the K6-2-350 which should give it a slight advantage but not enough to worry about. I also have 88 games so far against Junior 5.0 under similar conditions and it is 88 points below Junior 5 right now using the Fritz 5.32 elo calculation function. Against Crafty 16.2 in 16 games it is 22 elo points ahead right now. Jim Walker
