Dan, this is incorrect and will put up peoples hopes unnecessarily. The FOBG
version will in fact be released on 256 billion billion galaxies. ChessBase is
trying to find a way to compress a subset of the most important 32-piece endings
onto the matter from 256 galaxies. But there are still a lot of technical and
legal problems to be solved (e.g. Greenpease is giving us a rough time about
dismantling galaxies to store chess positions).
