Hi Graham,

nice to see the place 1 for Wasp 4.00!
John will be happy!!

Two short questions:

1. I think you delete "Counter" after you got a virus message?!
You changed from Counter to Weiss.

Viurs:
The reason that I deleted the program from "Engines" link selection on my web site.

2. Fat Fritz 1.0 and Fat Fritz 1.1 are available!
Can be run as CPU version.

But what is Fat Fritz Junior?
Version 1.0 or 1.1?
And "Junior"?

A private available Chessbase engine?

Thanks for the work you do so many years now!

Best
Frank

Hi Frank,

thanks as usual for your kind words. Of course, you've contributed massively over a long period too.

I can't run Counter on any of my computers, as Sophos keeps deleting it.

Fat Fritz Junior is what the CPU version is called and it is using the w510 net.

Nice for Wasp to win a tourney. I hope that John still follows events.

Stay safe,
Graham.
