Lomonosov Endgame Tablebases

Post by Norbert Raimund Leisner »

Hello,

the ChessOK a.k.a. Convekta support told me:

Lomonosov tablebases - it is 7 pieces engame tablebases. In this year we have plans to make them on DVD - such tablebases may be copied to hard disk on your computer.

Best wishes,
Norbert

I wonder how much that service (DVDs) would cost?
