In addition, I think that almost every chess player can learn positional play from a good engine. If I didn't think this, there would be no Rybka. Re. WinFinder, yes this is included with Rybka 1.2. I don't want to make too many promises with this tool because its future is not 100% clear, but everything that I have by Feb 1 will be included with that first release. Vas
