Of course I won't and we can probably still find some games where the human
player gets the advantage because he finds a way out of the book where the
computer can not handle this because of a lack of opening knowledge. But, even
if that was usual some years ago (remember Kasparov player e3 the first time
against Fritz) is becomes more and more difficult to find because books are
improving too.

I would like to see more opening knowledge in programs too.
