I've always enjoyed reading posts about your adventures playing various engines. I'm glad that you downloaded Latista and gave it a try. It certainly is NOWHERE near the level of Fruit or Rybka (or many others). But trust me when I say plenty of sweat has been poured into it, as is the case with many other 'non-elite' engines. It means a lot to me that you got some enjoyment out of it. Eric
