Let us speak of World Class service.....YES!  At LEAST a gui with NEW features!!
I mean .....really.......  50 euros for what?  10 extra rating points?  snicker!
 shame on us if we buy such an ..........insult...........It is NOT the
consumers issue to worry or concern ourselves with programmer/business expense
and " breakdown" of "expenditures" in terms of overhead costs....... We as
consumers ONLY care about results!  Don't like that?  Then get out of the
business! It IS indeed reidiculous to pay 50 euros for THE SAME OLD SMELLY GUI
-- YEAR AFTER YEAR!!!!!  sheeeeeeeeesssssssssh.  At least add a new piece set
like Shredder does!  I meaan I aam an IMPULSE BUYER and  INDEED I am NOT
attracted to buying JUNIOR 8 -- The one chessbase engine I do NOT have a copy
of...because of all the BAD PRESS it has recieved her at CCC....... and believe
me --- I SMOKE my credit cards for all the new chess inovations!!  P.S.  Don't
like my caps?  THEN DON'T READ MY POST!!!!!!!! Alex!!!
