It may just be my nature, but I think the chess comsumer got scammed again by
another chess programmer. Correct me if I am wrong, but did not Mark the
programmer of Hiarcs7 state on CCC that there would be no Hiarcs7 version for
Fritz 5 or Windows. Now all the sudden out of the blue comes HIARCS 7.32. This
looks like a classic double dipping in the chess market. First tell everyone
that Hiarcs7 for dos is it, no windows version to wait for, so buy now. Then
after some time hit the market with the Windows version of Hiarcs7 that everyone
wanted in the first place, so this way you get some people to buy your program
twice.

I know this can't be true...
