But there is also another issue: Having many 6-men Tbs may cost some real money: money for disk space, money for download time (without a reasonably fast connection to the internet, it will be futile, to try to download a good set of 6-men TBs). Of course, it also can cost real money, to come to a computer chess tournament with a rather fast computer. Some of the typical commercial entrants seem to have their sponsors. Other particapants won't have them. No, I don't think, it is very worthwhile to discuss about these issues. But just saying "every programmer is free to ..." is too easy, as well. Regards, Dieter
