The interface hasn't changed much but there have been some good improvements. Do you think that Chessbase made more improvements? And about the engine: It's one of the strongest engines if not the strongest right now. >2) The 2D boards are junk compared to Fritz; Not really. They are simply not so good as Fritz's, but impressive anyway. >3) The global system needs to be redone from scratch in a similiar format to >Fritz; >4) The analysis and opening book are a joke. The only problem for opening book is that it can't be optimised for the best play.But you have the option to make your opening book easy. I agree analysis is bad. >5) The goes on and on...." What else do you see it's bad?(Propably nothing).Anyway Chessmaster has to be improved a lot because there are many weak points on it.
