Look here now, It doesn't look very much like I will be getting a 64bit
computer, so I'd like to ask, is the actual program upgraded too? Is it a more
advanced version in that it has got over its few weaknesses in which Shredder
7.04 could surpass it? (e.g. to get much better results than Shredder 9, when
playing against Junior 9).
If so, I think that alone will make it great for me, if it can be redone for 32
bit too.......and I would really worry too much about the 10-20% increase in
speed.
 Not that it's not a good thing, but I'd like an improved version of Shredder 9
for my upcoming Centrino!
