Which book are you referring to? I didn't consider General.ctg to be that good
in general opinion, that's why I didn't use it. And I don't own any of the
Powerbook CDs.
Nimzo's and Junior's books are excellent, so I often let programs like Fritz,
Crafty or even Hiarcs use those.

I must also correct my statement regarding Fritz' book use, it should have read

 "Fritz used the Junior book against Nimzo/CSTal and the Nimzo book against
Junior"

(with the idea that "no book should play against itself" for more variety).
