Instead of this childish sarcasm you could better provide a better explanation.
Let me guess: there is none. Worldchampionship package, laughable. Neither Nimzo
nor Genius competed. And the last Genius version which was WCh was version...I
hardly can remember, too long ago.

Since I am a computer chess maniac, is a JPG OK?
The only reason I'll buy it is Shredder4, but many more guys like me Ossi has to
hope for to buy his new Porsche (I doubt that). Shredder4 alone would sell like
crazy and Ossi would sit on Genius and Nimzo. That is the reason for this
package.

BTW I never imagined you could take this criticism that personal, it is not your
selling politics.
