Hi Bigler!

I wouldn't dare to predict a 100 ELO difference between Rybka and Fritz 9+Fruit
2.2.1. I just posted my testresults: 16½-13½ victory for Rybka against both
Fruit 2.2.1 and Fruitz 9 (check my posting for testdetails). What is quite
certain is that Rybka belongs in the topclass with Shredder 9, Fruit 2.2.1 and
Fritz 9. It might be a bit stronger but it will depend on exact testconditions
and the Hardware being used. No matter what, Rybka seems to be an amazing engine
and we should all be happy that there is a new contender for the number 1 spot.
