Allegedly some tried this out. In Germany someone proved the moves, another "expert" (no name given!) doesn't confirm. If I was interested and would have the time to check this I would do it. >But is it proven that he has cheated? I myself think he has, but has it been >proven yet? You can't prove, impossible, because not all moves are Fritz' moves. And besides there are multi-variation-mode etc. EVIDENCE enough, not only for me, is that a patzer like Allwermann, although he has DWZ 1926 (~ELO2100) which is ~130 higher than mine, performs ELO2630 in 9 games! This is impossible without cheating. >Maybe I have missed some information in this case. In that case - sorry! > >Robert Ericsson
