I don't know how you can give Shredder 9 a real testing without playing Shredder 8 & Shredder 7.04. Since Shredder 8 and Shredder 7.04 are the two top known programs. Not to say you will not test Shredder 9 against other program. I for one what to know how Shredder 9 will score playing against the top two programs.
