My blitz database of 32,000 games has the programs in almost the exact same order as the SSDF list (within the +/- Elos). Also it seems the top 2 or 3 programs don't have a lot to argue about when it comes to strength. I like Rybka but it's endgame is weak and it has no opening book of it's own. I don't own Hiarcs 10 or Fritz 9 so Icould only guess from the reports posted here. Jim
