Ingo can answer in more detail -- but the Shredder 9 release from ShredderChess
will NOT be weaker than the CB Native release.  In my opinion, it will be a
stronger "package" because of some small losses in Sandro's book when it is
converted to CB's GUI ".CTG" format.  These, however, are all very small points.

No.

Come on -- a true collector will have them both!  :)

Early claims were 40-50 ELO, but Sandro, Ingo or Helmut will probably not answer
this until the product is shipping (after Feb 10.)
