IMHO it is a poor advertisement for ChessBase, if that's what ChessBase is
like(?). I don't know. I haven't bought ChessBase. Anyway, apparently it doesn't
have several of the features of the ChessLab.com site, such as statistics for a
position. I haven't used it except to try it out briefly 2-3 times, so don't
know if there are bugs.  I get occasional freezeups with the ChessLab.com site.
I imagine that's because Java/Javascript is a relatively buggy language(s) as
interpreted by the wide variety of browsers/systems on the internet.

There is a new site offering CDs with several million games, but the software
requirements aren't clear (to me): http://www.slipperyparrot.com/
