Hello Kurt,
The strange thing is that in my blitz test CT2004 did pretty good vs Shredder 8
and Fritz 8.  It did very bad vs Hiarcs 9 and only about even with Junior 8.  It
also played only a little above Pro Deo when Chess Tiger 15 just killed Pro Deo.
 It has some obvious changes from CT15 but seems only slightly better overall.
Just my opinion based on 796 blitz games.
Jim
