I found them very informative, the annoted games I like alot, and the tutorials
are good for people wanting to learn, and for the more experience to look deeper
into their game, it covers the basics and more advanced thoeries. But for a more
in depth tutorial which covers more openings and theories there maybe better
things avaiable, I am an experienced player, and found them quite satifying.

Anyhow, I think considering the cost, if you do not have CM6K then you should
buy it at least for the chess program, the tutorial considering the cost could
be counted as a great extra.
