Using the freeware program Webcopier, I was able to download several large files
from Chessbase which not only goes over every feature Chessbase 8 has, but has
many graphics displaying the features.  These files covers everything you ever
wanted to know about Chessbase 8 a lots of stuff you don't.  The reason I
downloaded it is because of the huge amount of material.  Of course the
information can be read online since there is a very fine index, so you can find
about anything you want.  Included is a fine overview.  Seek and you will find.
