If that is the case, I would like to say that Genius was a very special program
of its time, and somewhat beyond its time, and not too bad, even far beyond.
And that the next program to be as qualitative for its time was Hiarcs 7.0
(normally refered to as 7.01 due to a very slight speed increase via interenet
patch).
 What is the next? Is there another now? perhaps Fritz 6a is the one? but if so,
is that IT for now?
