I am not 100% certain who it was but someone from CCC sent me an e-mail requesting the Chessbase version of the Chess Tiger 15 engine in exchange for various other Chessbase Engines. No, I will not send commercial engines to anyone on this site. That is stealing for those very few of you who do not seem to understand this. The regulars here understand this well and do not make such requests. These programmers work VERY hard to make these programs available to us and you are taking from their pockets every time you send a commercial engine to your buddies. Chess programmers are not getting rich writing chess programs like some seem to think. Chessbase has few programmers and they have so many tasks to complete that they cannot even begin to work on Deep Fritz 8 at this time. They are not the huge corporate conglomerate that some seem to think they are and they do not have the funds to hire the additional programmers to handle all these tasks. I know several who work there and also the main owner so I know this to be true. If you want a chess program...go out and buy it. They are reasonably priced and it will help the programmer immensely in his work. Thank you, Charles
