As much as I like Chess Base stuff, I suspect some politics here. It is a well known fact the Anand, other top GM's are provided with whatever Chess Base programs & data they want. They all use extensively in their day to day preperation. All they have to do is stop by the Chess Base office. (if that). Also, Anand might have been thinking about how easy (& fun:)), it was to beat up on Karpov recently in a Man/Fritz challenge match. Anyway, I can sense a lot of reasons why he would 'talk up' Fritz, and Chess Base, over a program (and a company whose mission statement is, 'Anti GM'), that got him that one time... Larry T.
