I don't think you are alone. I use mine (Fritz5.32 and Shredder) mainly for analysis, games and/or positions, with an occasional game now and then to see if it got weaker :-) But, even the analysis I don't take as gospel because these are mainly tactical engines that are weaker at analyzing positional moves. However, I am not a strong enough player to refute what the programs consider the best move and from a tactics standpoint, they are merciless. Regards, Steve
