It costs a lot of money if you order all the modules, but the best program to help you improve is Chess Mentor. It is not a playing program though. If you want practice with tactics and almost every other feature you would want, get Fritz 5. you will love it. A program like Rebel 9 is a little too advanced for you, but it is a great buy if you get the Rebel 9 Light version. CM5500 has some teaching features but if you get Chess Mentor you won't need CM5500's instructional features. The choice of programs also depends on whether you are playing tournament chess or not. I would recommend going to the following site for more info. http://www.gambitsoft.com/komputer.htm On December 29, 1997 at 11:44:22, Stephen Puca wrote: >I am a relatively new computer user and I also happen to be a rather >inept wood pusher.
