Craig:  I don't have the manual with me at the moment (I am at work, it is at
home), but I believe it actually says, "Fritz will not JUST give alternative
moves...".  If I recall correctly, the auto annotate feature does indeed give
alternatives and praise and criticize moves and give complete annotations during
its analysis while you are away from the computer.  But remember one important
thing:  SAVE the annotated game immediately; I forgot once and lost all the
annotations, which had taken Fritz several hours to produce.

Cheers,
Mark
