Subject: Fritz5 and opening books

I think that the value of opening book is in going to positions that the program
understands better than the opponent(for example if the program has good results
in positions with isolated pawn in both sides than the program should play for
these positions.

I know that fritz3 when it played against humans on a pentium90 did it
and played in a tournament game with white 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 exd5
4.c4 and won against a grandmaster.
They used in this tournament a book for fritz3.


Fritz5's book for the ssdf and for sale and for other tournaments against
computers(like paris micro computer championship) is not a book for fritz5 and I
do not understand what is the reason.
I believe they could have better results if they used a book for fritz5.
