The GUI is a 32 bit one , the engine is still 16 bit and of similar strength .. > > Is it worth buying it ? My personal opinion - no ! Genius 6.5 was a fair package (with the option to include the additional engines ) just as the Gold edition itself ( 6.0 was very buggy though) . I think the Gold edition is really a very cool CD , and if I had to choose just one Genius version I'd simply take this one and happily throw away all the rest. Genius 5 works fine with Windows XP, too. When it is about strength , since Genius 3 they have all been very close.
