As such I can offer a perspective you may appriciate. I have Tasc chess tutor, Like book training only better as you can move through it faster (and learn quicker). It is very organized. I am about half way through it now. I have Chess Mentor and some extra modules. I have done about 960 questions. It is very good, not so traditional it its style. Sort of addicting actually. The study time just flys right along when using this product. I also have purchased Fritz5. I have not had this very long but seems to have had training in mind just as much as playing strength. I have been looking at it and playing with it as time permits. I strongly reccomend it as well. I have been making great strides by using these products. I find that chess seems to be more enjoyable the more that you learn. Good luck to you, Harl Myers
