pavel,

  I am not sure but I 'think' with the ChessBase version you could take the
CT/GT .dll's and use them with ChessAssistant. The opposite would not be true as
the *.eng files would be missing. If you decide to go this route I'm sure I or
someone here could check this in more detail.

 In the end I guess the choice is what you enjoy most. Sometimes people do not
know what they enjoy the most but do know where they spend the most time. Just a
thought.
