It does not seem to make tactically questionable moves just for active-play. The last program I played like that that I owned as a Mephisto Mondial (think that was the name), a very, very flat, touch-sensitive all-in-one unit that Larry Kaufman gave me. I learn a lot from playing those since their "quiet" style forces me to do something. I also try Levy's "do-nothing but do it well" advice. Stuart
