Convekta: Chess Openings 2003

Do you ever wish you had an easy to use electronic opening reference that had wide coverage of a variety of different openings? Such a product would include up to date theory as well as a supporting collection of master games. It would also show transpositions between different move orders, a chess tree, and allow fast and easy access to the data. Moreover, it would be offered by a company with good support policies and reasonable prices. Of course, the program I am talking about here is Convekta's Openings 2003. Indeed, this particular software is much more than a simple electronic book on the openings. The difference is that it uses the Chess Assistant 7 engine to organize and access the opening data presented on this CD. Those that are engaged in serious chess study know that there are several aspects to learning an opening. One is the consultation of existing theory on the best variation to play from a particular position. Convekta addresses this by providing extensive recommendations of the strongest variations for over 500 ECO codes. Another aspect of opening study is of course the examination of master games. Convekta addresses this by providing a copy of their "Guru" database, which contains over 600,000 games by players with an ELO above 2300. And of course, Convekta's chess trees and search functions can be used to access and view all the data on the CD. And like Chess Assistant 7, Openings 2003 offers a whole host of other database features, like searches, printing, chess engine analysis, and the like. The only thing you can't do is open and create other databases (you can annotate any of the games in the guru database that you want though). Note: This item may ship separately from the rest of your order. Item will take 2-3 weeks to arrive.
