Thank you, and to all. Did not know fruit played single cpu, great. I just
wonder however how it play against for example fritz in CC. I have been using
Fritz for these games, and have tried others, Crafty and shredder 7.04 just in
my experience dont measure up except on certain board positions, both have come
up with a nice move on occasion.

Fritz is good enough, but I am involved with too many draws. A engine slightly
better eval would help here. Everyone uses fritz is the main reason and if I
play the whole game with another of my engines I lose.
