The only Lang I have (apart form the Mill. ChessGenius/ChessGenius Pro) is the Mephisto Mondial 68000 XL 1971 (1988). Just a little too weak I guess...
Morsch fan regards

Argh, I have the the London EPROMs for the Berlin, so can upgrade to the London if that’s ok?
Or should I say downgrade looking at the ELO ratings ...

A Berlin London sounds reasonable to me. Don't know if at that point it is worth including Mephisto London as both should be identical other than the 80% larger opening book in the Mephisto London and larger ROM.. Or does the Berlin London have the same Mephisto London ROM? I never tried loading it onto a Berlin 68,000?
