However, I confess that I'm the least knowledgeable poster at this web site, with respect to computer chess. So all I can do is report results and leave it to you experts to interpret. I do have good news though. I've exchanged a couple emails with Mark Uniacke and he said Hiarc 10 is in the works. I offered to provide some assistance with the opening book in that I'm reporting obvious flaws in the book when I discover them. Mark's a very nice guy. He's aware that the H9 book (and previous books) are less than ideal and he plans to improve the situation. All the best, Stephen
