On the other hand, I really wouldn't know, how he could improve this great program even more. But he did it in the past, he will do it in the future, I'm sure.

Are you talking about version 5 or 8? Did you see it's (v8) results in my tournament? It plays great chess, and it's absolutely competitive even against the strongest other programs.

Enrique used all the strongest programs available at that time, in the biggest tournament I have ever seen (550 games all in all). Greetings, Heiko.
