I was thinking on similar lines myself. The Shredder website news is also just
about everything I'm NOT interested in, but maybe HE is.
"first Mackintosh to win a chess brawl" and "Shredder managed to win even on a
Mackintosh!" "New Shredder upgrade! What? Deep! what next? 64-bit and without
any improvements except for 10-20% speed if you buy a 64-bit computer".

What the final straw to my anticipation? A NEW historic Shredder, due in the
summer!!! (July? August? September?), well, perhaps it might even be july! not
too bad, and what? believe it or not, MACKINTOSH! OH I'm soooooo pleased for
Shredder (9). hugs and kisses!

Even If I was about to die, I don't think Shredder would even wave a smile at
me!
