Joshua, I don't think monopolies work. So I don't think that if Chessbase gets a monopoloy it will be to the benefit of computer chess. I also think that Chessbase doesn't opperate at the source code level and hence the idea that if, "Mchess, Shredder, Nimzo, Chess Tiger, Gambit Tiger , Gandalf, Hiarcs, Fritz , Junior, and so on and puts it all together = +30 ELO" is not applicable. Chessbase operates at the DLL (aka *.eng) level. That said I think plain old Winboard will give ChessBase competition, if only in devaluing the chess engines. Steve
