I have a friend who has improved tremendously since he started taking lesson from an IM a couple months ago. The IM only charges him $25/hr, so the price is reasonable. However, since I don't have the time to schedule a lesson during the week, or the inclination to drive to a lesson even if I had the time, I like Chess Mentor (CM). Why? Because it drills me over and over in positions that I should know and I can use it any time I have a few spare minutes during the day. I also like CT-Art 3.0 for tactical training. It should be noted that I have always liked solving tactical puzzles from books and magazines, and I think that's a big part of the reason I like these programs so much. Tony
