I rather think, that Stefan had one of the usual dual machines, made available
by the sponsor, i.e. 2 times 256 MB.
AFAIK, he usually does not play with the commercial book on such occasions. In
order to avoid special book preparation by the opponents, Stefan uses a small
secret book.
This is certainly not a killer book.
