TK played itself => there's nothing about Vienna opening in its book
Also I found that there's a built-in randomizer, because in our previous game it answered 2. ..., Nc6 {and before there was a randomness found when I played Dutch Defence for Black}

Endings are not the tough part of most dedicated chess machines and probably programs from kaplan and morsch are the weakest on this stage of the game. RS2250XL is almost 200 elo above TKII. I see turboking D+ is it the same as TKII?

In Wiki TurboKing II is marked & rated with D-program inside. D+ is a next version: I think its ELO is around 1950, and sometimes it plays very creative!

I just saw the active elo schachcomputer list and the D+ elo is 1965 and RS2250XL is 2055 so D+ is not so far from RS2250XL as TKII that is rated 1889. Of course playing 30 min for the entire game makes things tough for the endings on these machines. That is why some machines of similar elo at 30sec/move plays stronger or weaker when it is set to time/game. When playing on time/game the factor time management becomes more important than in time/move as the game goes by. Look at this list these games are played even faster 15 min/game there are some difference of elo when playing blitz from wiki.
