Hello Terry, I decided to leave the tablebases on the CD because not only would memory be a problem, but soon there will be Shredder 4, and Fritz 6, and more, so what will happen in the fall? Will you purchase one of the newer and presumably stronger programs? If so, then you'll have all that space used up on your harddrive that you may have to delete. It's not a big problem but is it worth it to install a smaller amount of tablebases when you can have more on the CD, and, if what you say is correct about the difference in speed, I'd just run it off the CD and have more of what I paid for.
