Hi Steve: The quality of many of the reviews in the CCR resource center are of a higher standard than the off-hand opinions & remarks here in our club. While I find it easy to post a quick reply and/or opinion of various software that I have over here, writing a review or considered opinion piece requires a tremendous amount more energy because of my (own)standards. So I submit nothing for there (yet), as I feel that anything readable there should have a more lasting quality to it then stuff posted here. As far as ideas are concerned to get people who could write reviews, that haven't taken a stap at it. Greed is always a good motivating facter. If ICD can afford it, perhaps they could have a contest for the best reviews written, awarding chess software & merchandise to the winners. (no, I have no idea how that would be judged!). mrslug - the inkompetent chess software addict!
