I do not belive the opening books of Chessbase programs are not "handtuned" like
Rebels book.
Anyway I belive H7.32 book is pretty bad. You can actually download a new one
from Chessbase, but you have to add some GM games yourself. So if you have the
old Hiarcs book, perhaps it would perform better with one of the other books.
