Go up one level in this thread


Hello John,
The more I play with it the less I like it.  I think the interface is a step
backwards or at least no improvement.  I'm comfortable with the CM9K interface
and just changing it without adding something new is a waste of time in my
opinion.  To really evaluate it I would like to play some of the persoanlities
at my level and not just Chessmaster/patzers.  I now see no reason to purchase
it since I like CM9K.  I admit I can only access the 2D board and the expert
board is only usable not an improvement over CM9K.  I can't test the engine for
solving times and it looked bad vs Shredder 8 in a couple of games. I can find
no reason to purchase it even though I'm looking hard.
Jim
