I can't understand how you can be offended of Shroder's email and at the
same time offend him so much. It is the competition between the
chessprograms that gives us a lot of freeware and pricereductions and
the customer is the winner. And how can you call such a qualityprogram
crappy. All of the topprograms are in very high level in strengt and
quality, but in different ways. Rebel is very easy to manoeuvre and
clear. Fritz has more fun tools for those who want to have fun, and not
take chess too seious. I have both programs, and love them.
Isn't it a bit cruel to call a program that the author has spent 10
years of his life with for crappy. That is not the same as a serious
criticism.
Let us be kind to each other in this club.
