SMK has fruit to learn now when he did not have fruit to learn on the time that he released older versions so it is logical to expect bigger improvement in shredder10 relative to shredder9 and not in shredder9 relative to older versions. Note that I also expect less than 150 elo improvement but 150-200 elo improvement is not impossible. The only problem is that I think that SMK woke up too late and he will not be able to do it in march 2006 but only later when it is again not going to be enough for first place. Uri
