They made sure that they programs wouldn't autoplay under >sub-optimal conditions. I do not agree. They give the users less options. I think that giving the users more options is better. I think the users are intelligent enough to understand if the conditions are suboptimal. I do not think that CD-rom in the drive is optimal condition because I saw Nimzo99 losing some games against Mchess because of the stupid way of using this CD. I also think that the CD-rom of Fritz is part of the Fritz program so they should not let Junior or Nimzo to use it(The buyers of only Junior do not get the Fritz CD). Uri
