I'm a big CM9k fan, but >if all that changes is online play and art I'll be waiting for something else. That is true..................the 3d sets are kewl when laid out in a 2d perspective ( I really like the newspaper set). I'm very glad too see the engine is probably re-worked. Indeed the extra art will be great...I get REALLY board playing on the same old sets and my child plays more chess with more boaards and features available (she loves the dogs set because she loves animals.) Chess base does indeed fail when they keep giving the buyer THE SAME OLD GUI over and over again (ok ok so they have learned to give one extra set--big deal.) I hope the opening book editor is vastly improved as that has been one of thier weak points for us hardcore players. What would really be kewl is if in tournament mode it would SAVE THE GAMES that it plays to a file. And tell me WHO would'nt love this feature -- THAT you could EASILY enter the selected games from a played tournament (especially from your own designed opening book-get where this is leading to?) into your personal opening book with the touch of a button at the users defined number of moves!!!!!!!!!! FEED us please! Chessbase certainly would'nt do THAT! To much fear that a book would be created that would target thier programs! But hey! I would spend bux for that!! Perhaps CM could market thier equivalent to chessbase for a cheaper price with the described feature and I would buy it!! Who wouldnt? Alex.
