I'm not all that familiar with CMC, but there are some that say that the engine might be a few points stronger than the one in CM 10th. Since they're both so inexpensive, I would suggest either CM 10th or CM9000. The former of those has the most content, but the latter is less buggy, in particular with regards to the very important "Mentor Lines" window which allows for infinite analysis. If you tell me what you want, I might be able to make a better suggestion. jm
