Hello Thorsten, I enjoyed watching the games as they were played. CSTal-2 is an interesting program. It is obviously much better at 40/2 than at blitz. I think most people today play against their computers at faster time controls because 40/2 takes a long time and is usually reserved for "Serious" games in tournaments. As I said in another post, it's been at least 10 or 15 years since I played a game at 40/2. Either way, CSTal can give most everyone all they want at any time control if it is on a fast computer. At blitz on ICC it handles most all 2400 players with ease. It cannot compete with the top programs at blitz though. I like the interface but it needs fixing. I don't know if I will buy CSTal-3 because I have no way of knowing in advance if all the bugs have been fixed. Regards, Jim Walker
