By "default personality" I meant the personality which is made to play as strong as possible. All the other personalities which are made to emulate a particular style (e.g. Fisher, Karpov, Tal, ...) make the engine weaker, I think, because some optimal settings are changed. OK, I know that chess isn't solved yet, maybe never will be. But if engines become much more stronger, undoubtedly they will find these BEST MOVES (Uri), and make very few mistakes. I think that exactly these little "mistakes" make a particular style. If engines don't make mistakes, their playing style won't be so variegated than that of today's engine's. Of course I could be wrong. Therefore this question. :-) Regards, Robert
