I have mostly interested about engines in context of analysing my games in scid, so missing opening book is not big issue too. I know i can run UCI engines in scid via polyglot, but i must also find out how much (if at all) it makes UCI engines weaker. In multiprocessor computers crafty is probably stronger, but as i said i have computer with single processr.
