I enjoy all of the reviews here. They help me to decide which programs etc. to buy or not. I must disagree with one comment on the Item 11. You recommend that programs should resign when they detect a negative mate(Mate of computer). I really would not like to see that function. I had an old dedicated computer (Fidelity I think) that once resigned on me in the face of a "Mate in 2". Of course I hadn't seen it. I spent almost a half hour trying to find it and never did. I had to let the computer show me where it was. Imagine today's computers quiting on a "Mate in 13". Jim Walker
