Some of those programs are very strong. I resisted getting Winboard at first but (at the risk of sounding cult-like) I was wrong, it's great. So you may at first have a little bit of trouble with it because you need to edit the winboard.ini file to get the Chess engines running, but people here are willing to help with that. Winboard can be used for many more things than I actually use it for, I only scratch the surface myself. Pete
