Making the program stronger is one, making the program >weaker AND doing that in a decent way is an art in itself. What about the possibility to tune the engine like it is possible in Chessmaster/King and some other programs? And, additional, I'd like to see several different opening books: a) computer book, optimized for the engine b) tournament book for general use/training, including actual theory which may contain actual lines that are not well handled by the engine c) fun book for opening training, containing weak moves where the user can and should try to find a good way to win but if he makes some weaker moves he'll get blown d) a Gambit-book with several harsh lines (including incorrect lines, but only if the user finds or knows the correct answer). So all different interests should be handled. What about it, Ed?
