I guess that it is not going to help because people need to know that there is
something that is called fritz and based on previous posts of someone who talked
with people who bought chessmaster(micheal cumming if I remember correctly to
spell his name) I understood that most of the buyers of chessmaster do not know
that Fritz is a chess program.
