New Mega

UPGRADED to ChessBase's 2019 Mega database at the London Chess & Bridge shop yesterday, installing the database this afternoon.
Am pleased to report ChessBase has (at last!) significantly improved the installation process.
Previously, and I am using ChessBase9, you installed Mega to your hard-drive and then had to hunt around your computer to make it accessible within the ChessBase software.
Now you 'merely' install, click on File, click on Open, click on Open Database and click on Mega Database 2019.cbh.
That may sound long-winded, but it is fairly intuitive and is certainly easier than it was.
I have 862 games on Mega19, score "badly" as White and "below average" as Black, and have eight "Spanton mates."
Overall, there are more than 7.6million games in Mega19, with the latest from early October (gone are the days when Guernsey in mid/late-October made it into the updated Mega).
