I recently purchased Rebel 9 and subsequently returned it to the vendor for Hiarcs 6 instead because I found it confusing to use and it had a very inadequate user manual. I was utterly flabbergasted with the difficulty of even loading Hiarcs 6 onto my machine as it was very DOS oriented and, being a computer neophyte, I know only rudimentary Win 95 and am completely baffled by DOS talk....strike two! This morning, I shipped the Hiarcs6 back and for my last chance at expensive Chess Software, I ordered Fritz 5. Now i'm hoping for the best as I await my third and last choice. I am hoping it is Win 95 friendly to both install and use, unlike either of the previous two programs. I want to use the program to help improve my abysmal chess as well as to have a good program to play against to warmup for my ICC matches. I am only a 1200 ELO rating which oftentimes dips even further. I would like any and all feedback from Fritz5 owners that may make my Win95 life easier and also any comments as to the utility of Fritz5 as a teaching and coaching tool. Thank you and may I apologize beforehand to all the old-hand DOS worshippers; I'm sorry, I just got "here" too late!
