I can't install all tablebases on HD because of limit space. Besides, I understand that Turbo Endgame tablebases is good for study and practice. However, I wonder whether it is also good for playing serious games, isn't it? Let's suppose that when a game approaches to endgame, six or more pieces remain on chessboard, how can I know which CD, second, third, or fourth one, is correct before inserting it into CD-ROM drive? It is part of preparation for endgame soon, because Fritz6 or friends still compute accessing both positions in a game and Turbo Endgame CD when six or more pieces remain on chessboard. Yes! They sometimes access Turbo Endgame almost before endgame. I don't know whether Turbo Endgame makes Fritz6 or friends stronger in serious games. Which is better to play serious games with or without accessing Turbo Endgame? What is your recommendation? My computer is a laptop that has a limit hard disk space. Please let me know. Thanks for your help. Eran
