Is There Anything ...

[AdminX]

Is There Anything that Chessbase 9 can do that ChessBase Light 2007 Premium cannot do? Since there is about a $100 dollars difference in price. With CB Light Premium can you use your Activation Key on say a Desktop and a Laptop or one system only?

€49,99 Chessbase Light Premium

€154,90 Chessbase 9

Thanks

There is some info in german here:http://www.chessbase.de/support/support.asp?pid=647
It says its largely identical to CB9.
For registration it uses the hardware configuration,so if its changed or if you put it on another system,you have to registrate again.This is limited to 3 times!
This also means one system only.

Hi Ted.

From chessbase.com:

ChessBase Starter Package contains

ChessBase Big DataBase 2008 (3.75 Million games from 1794 to 2006 in highest ChessBase quality standard without annotations)
Player encyclopedia with over 20000 pictures
three issues from the ChessBase Magzine
Fritz5.32-Engine
Crafty-Engine
It provides you with a one-click connection to the largest chess community in the world, Playchess.com (1 year access)


The 100€ difference must come from Big DataBase 2008 and 1 year of playchess, 50€ each


There were rumors too of Chessbase 10 this year, by the time of DF11, so perhaps you can wait, but they are only rumors

Hi Ted,

To your knowledge, do the limitations of the free ChessBase Light 2007 (not Premium) still make it useful?

The extra $100 is for a database (i.e. collection of games) .
Hard to believe but that's marketing.

Dunno. Can you annotate and give different colors to variations? Do you have "keys" and "medals" to make finding stuff easier?
