Have you read the CD insert about how the opening book for Hiarcs is unsuitable for Fritz? You should be using the opening book designed for Fritz - F5 ctg. This is on the Talk CD. Your testing is unfair unless you allow both sides to have their proper opening book. How could you possibly use a Hiarcs opening book for Fritz? That's like putting a Hyundai motor in a Cadillac. Don't you want to test programs on an equal basis - as equal as possible? Mel >Tomas.
