Apart from the problems involved with comparing disjoint rating lists
(SSDF/FIDE), it is also problematic to compare "performance ratings" with
"ratings".
Remember both Kasparov and Karpov had tournaments (Linares) with performance
ratings beyond 2900, yet Karpov has never been 2770+ on the FIDE list IIRC.
Fritz 6 supposedly had a 2800+ performance rating at the Frankfurt Masters this
year. See my point?
