A database or opening book will not win you a game. Either they will pop you out into a middle game position in which, if you used the opening book blindly, you won't have a clue about, or your opponent will divert from theory early and you're on your own anyway. A computer plays at a GM level; you do not.
THEY ARE ALLOWED.
you're wrong, the databases could win the game if you fail to see how thats your problem, im not going to explain to you like a kid.. you figure it out.

I read the article. The 'developer of the system' is stating that in a computer vs GM match, the database could win the day. In a GM vs GM match, if one player were allowed databases this would also constitute a large advantage.
But we are not Grandmasters. It seems I will have to explain it to you like a kid. Databases and opening books contain GM level moves. At our level an opening book will, at best, help you to a solid middle game position (and that is only if your opponent is nice enough to use one too). A database, unless your opponent is blindly following the same games, won't be an aid to you for very long.
Unless one is a very good player, the reason most opening moves are not considered solid eludes us completely. Don't worry your pretty little head about it, CentreNut, I assure you your losses are all your own.
