Midtown 1.0 for download

I've started from scratch on a new book, so Midtown is not going to be updated.

Midtown takes a very hypermodern approach to openings, playing a lot of Larsen openings (1.b3) and pirc/modern defense as black. This can result in some very dangerous situations, but it will almost certainly throw a lot of people out book early. I would recommend that if you use this book, you have at least a quad-core PC. If you play with Midtown using a dual-core PC against someone with a quad-core, you will probably lose. This is just the way hypermodern strategies work, they rely heavily on an opponent making a mistake.

Hope you enjoy, but like I said, be careful how you use it. :)

Please see this forum post for download location.
