If so, you'd have enough games to look at and let a strong program look over your moves. In such games there is no deep tactics that LG or Fritz find and Rebel or MCP don't. And in such games where there is no deep tactics, I definitely prefer positional sound alternatives and suggestions from MCP, Shredder, King, Junior and Rebel. So you should do it both ways. First run Fritz over the game to search for a tactical hole and then run one or more of the other programs for move suggestions which are better according to the position on the board.
