I didn't even try this Pandofini rating exam thing.  Is it as enjoyable as Rate
your play?  Well, anyway, I uninstalled it, partly because I felt very
unsatisfied with a company that puts a new number on the same product, but the
product is different in enough ways that it could be called something else.  Or
to put it another way, Fritz6, though completely re-written from Fritz5.32,
retains all features of Fritz5.32, while offering up some new ones.  Too bad
Mindscape could not handle doing the same, especially as the program is on two
CD's...
