      Why are we taking such a tournament over
      some (much too less) rounds so seriously.
      It's well known to the experts that win/loss
      between top engines depend very much on the
      opening books used and in such short tournaments
      the goodness of books play a more important
      rule than the real playing strength of engines
      which are more or less equal. In this sense, the
      Dutch Open is just fun for me and despite Fruit's
      final result, we all know for sure that this
      engine belongs to the absolute top.
      Regards
      Kurt
