I know I shouldn't say this, but I found CM4000 a very strong program. I think it would give most players a tough time. It did have its problems. The last price I saw for it was less than ten dollars. I don't have it on the computer any more. I like to go over variations and do analysis and the Chessmaster programs weren't much good for that. I got the CM6000 for $19. A real bargain. But while a very good program and a best buy, I don't use it for the reasons stated. If it had a good analysis feature I would probably use it. It has a powerful engine and lots of features other programs do not have. I can't see why anyone would say bad things about it.
