The reason for the difference in price is that for $98.95 from ICD, you get the
program and a data disk that is current through Dec. 1999 (approx).  For $129
through Chess Assistant direct, you also get the 2000 data service via email
which will update your database weekly with current games.  This service
separately is $56 from Chess Assistant.  Other than the data service, the
products are identical.  :-)
