This is a contribution to triangle geometry, in particular to triangle centers, of which the third author's encyclopaedia contains already 50 000. A part of the Kiss-Bíró configuration consists of two triangles \(DEF\) and \(D'E'F'\), associated with a triangle \(ABC\) in the following manner (here \(H\) stands for the orthocenter and \(O\) for the circumcenter): \(D = AH\cap BO\), \(D' = AH\cap CO\), \(E = BH\cap CO\), \(E' = BH\cap AO\), \(F = CH\cap AO\), and \(F' = CH\cap BO\). If \(D''\), \(E''\), \(F''\) denote the midpoints of the segments \(DD'\), \(EE'\), \(FF'\), then the circumcircle of the triangle \(D''E''F''\) is concentric with the nine-point circle, is inversely similar to \(ABC\), and the ratio of similarity is \(\frac{OH}{2R}\). Moreover, the triangles \(ABC\) and \(D''E''F''\) are orthologic. This and much more is obtained by heavily computational methods.
