Genius5 & 6 is the same 16 bit engine. Genius6 interface is very nice and improved over G5, but I have to wonder if it is worth the differnce in price? It shows a tree of variations & can run different engines (like Fritz5). Both versions support pgn. & cbf. G6 has a larger opening book, but I heard (or read), that it is not a well tuned book, but just a big converted game file. G5 might even be the better deal if you got the Gold version, then other Genius programs are on the CD, including previous Dos versions... Go to www.computerchess.com for more info. Frankly, I was disgusted (as I often am), about the things we found out about the upgrade, only after the program was discussed extensively here. Perhaps you can read the many archived post about it here, although I'm not sure how you would find those post. Hope this helps...
