Hi Steve,

Interesting, these add on opening modules! Since last week I am the proud owner
of the CB16 opening module, which I have duly put into my Fidelity Sensory 9.
In the first game it completely surprised me by playing 1. f4?!

Hm, what about my opening book pressed in such a small module and then use it

Sunday regards, Jeroen
