I'd advise against using computer games in that case, as the openings
used by computers are very uniform and potentially wrong.
For example, Pachi without opening book on 9x9 is very prone (played
in 80%+ games where the position arises) to a specific variation of the
opening that leads to a decidedly suboptimal middle-game position.
I suspect other programs will have similar biases *or* follow a fixed
sequence from their opening book that may or may not be good, but you
are learning *their* opening book instead of the *optimal* opening book.
On the other hand, humans probably will switch openings often and
adapt quickly when they figure that a specific opening is not good.
