True.  I was curious about it because I notice that magazines never give
anything away that you couldn't just download anyhow, and I found that there is
this CM5000 that you can download that seems to allow you to play Chessmaster
online, here's the link:

I have not tried this and don't know how well this works.  I'm only guessing
that this is what the magazine is giving you a copy of.  Only guessing.
