Comes with Chess Partner 5.3 GUI. 2. IMO 150-200 points increase in strength - still below other top commercials. 3. SMP Capable 4. Great Support both from the author and Lokasoft. (IMO LokaSoft offer best support for any commercial chess program (engine/GUI) right now) 5. Unlimited playing styles with Personality editor. 6. True UCI engine, works flawlessly in F8 (for me). Any hiccups (I don't have any right now) are really due to F8 inaccurate implementaion of UCI protocol I believe. 7. Loyalty price is just $29. (Ask Chessbase about a their loyalty upgrade prices ;>) ....) Best Deal: If you don't a Lokasoft producty that qualifies for the loyalty price - Buy Chess Tiger (CT) 15 for around $45 CD (or $39 Download) and then get Deep Sjeng for only $29 download. The install works better if you intstall CT 15 first , then Deep Sjeng as opposed to installing Deep Sjeng and then CT 15. I have absolutely NO buyer remorse from buying Deep Sjeng. NONE AT ALL. PS -- Chess Tiger's author - Christopre Theron, offers the same high level of support. This is a GREAT combination (Lokasoft, Chess Tiger. Deep Sjeng) which I hope exists for many years.
