Well I am using my home made book composed of only computers games that i have
gathered from my engine tournaments and that i received from friends. Not all of
these games are analysed but surpringly it turned out to be a strong book that
has taken me to a 2880 Elo rating on the playchess.com. While using DJ8 Zx, it's
impressive because there are people with dual there who use DF7 and Shredder
7.04 who are stronger engines.
