Yes correct, this was a mistake.

I will use the nullmover account and michelangelo as handle. And if you are
editing, maybe you can add that my PC runs on slightly overclocked on 2.5Ghz.

Dann :

About the openingbook ... I have some ideas, but am not sure if they will work.
So let's see. ;-). For sure I will not use the same book as on WBEC, because
that one is out dated.

I try today a database system that seems to be very fast. I am not sure if
fastdb can work physical on hd too. This is what I am using:

It looks like to works fast on HD. So fast that I was thinking to store
hashrecords permanent on my HD as speed test. So if I had to, then I could
really use 1024Gb hashtable (after buying some storage in the shop).
