Fritz comes with about 300,000 games. So you can make your own "power
book".
You can also find the latest GM games off the net to update your book as
needed.
My book has about 12 million positions and works great. Whats nice about
Fritz 5 is you do not get a big slow down from using a huge book. Some
Chess programs I found take many secounds to make a book move. If you
make the book huge. Fritz 5 even with the size book I use makes its book
moves in less then 1 sec.
