That was a very logical place to put the restriction (in the interface) because if they had only done the restriction in the engine, then I could have downloaded the demo, and gotten a great interface (on my computer it worked flawlessly for anything I tried to do with it), and I could have just used one of the eng programs thatthey offer for download to run in it. But yeah, 32mb hashtable, that's not even a restiction for me because on my computer, I can't even use a program with _that_ much hashtable anyhow, Chessbase put out a great freebie, I don't know if that's what they intended.
