>Thanks.....Happy New Year to you.Hello, both to you and Rajen,
Fritz 6.66 is a new version of Fritz.  Fritz 6 that is already out and
commercial I called generic for want of a better name.  Fritz 6.66 or simply
T.66 is being tested by myself and a couple of other guys along with two other
versions: T.55 and T.67.  My favourite is T.66 for which I have my own nick --
El Diablo, both because of the number symbolism and its phenomenal playing
strength.
I haven't touched the parameters -- I have explicit confidence in Frans Morsch's
logic :)A Happy New 2000!*** Djordje

Thanks
