 You can't go wrong with either Fritz5.32 or Rebel10. Why not buy both? :) They
have great engines which complement each other, very good database capabalities,
 and plots of other features. Check out some great reviews right here on CCC.
Plus, the Rebel page you could post any questions you may have - on the Rebel
Board. You could ask your question about the drive installation. Personally, I
didn't think this was really a problem, but perhaps others may correct me.

 In any case, both are excellent values.
