This is a very good question, and something I have been wondering about.

CT 2004 was released with Chess Assistant and ChessPartner, but not Chessbase.

I have been watching CT2004 play online quite a bit recently, and it plays a
_very_ solid game. That has got me wondering why the SSDF rating is only
slightly above the previous versions, when clearly watching it online, it is the
best version.

I was watching a series of 30 10 games the other night on ICC between a Tiger
clone (Using the ChessPartner Interface) and a Shredder 9 clone (Using the CB
interface, so a good book was in use). After 6 games Tiger was leading 3.5-2.5
and they planned on playing through the night.

It was a pre-arranged match, and the hardware was identical. Both were using AMD
XP 3200+ systems, with the same OS and ram. I just can't remember either handle.

Maybe someone else here was watching as well and can fill me in. I would like to
know how the series ended, and if possible get the games to look over.

With that said, I am considering purchasing CT 2004 today. I also hope there is
a new Gandalf 6 patch coming out, as the version that played in IPCCC is
supposed to be stronger than 6.01...
