I'll defend those 4 flavors actually. For one thing, it is known that Deep Fritz
7 is more than an SMP version of Fritz 7, it is an upgrade of the engine, even
on a single CPU. Also, the testing on more than one hardware configuration has
provided many fascinating results, allowing us to better understand how much is
gained by doubling or tripling the raw processing power.
I wouldn't take away Crafty of course, which more or less paved the way by being
the first amateur to be tested on the list if I'm not mistaken. However, it
really would be nice to see some of the other very strong amateurs also tested.
