I've analyzed my own games with several programs, and I find Century to give me the most interesting hints. I don't know the reason why it is a level below the other top programs in comp-comp, but I dont mind anyway. IMO, this computer chess world is being unfair with this program (and some others) for not being tuned to play comp-comp. Personally, I'd suggest people to re-think what can they get from the chess programs they've bought. They will find there're many things more enjoyable than playing comp-comp... and they'll admit Century is great! José C.
