The successor to Bookup 2000 is here. Visit www.chessopeningssoftware.com and sign up.

The new program is called Chess Openings Wizard and it supports playback of audio and video.  This new version lets you record audio just as easily as you now add a comment.

The Professional version soon will allow you to add video and synchronize it with moves and marks on the diagram.

The graphic user interface (GUI) is updated to match the latest MasterChess 6000 and Susan Polgar Teaches Chess.

There are multiple high resolution (sharp on very big screens) 2D diagram sets.

The new delivery system allows you to download the latest version of the program any time on any computer.  Not even a hard drive crash will slow you down (outside of the time it takes to repair or replace your computer). No registration codes. It's automatic and easy.

What's the difference?

There are three versions...

Lite - free and "read only"

Express - $47 for the core functions

Professional - $147 for those who want overnight analysis, ability to combine ebooks, print, publish and do much more with their data.

For a limited time, Bookup customers get a huge discount on these video grandmaster lectures on DVD.

Paul likes to get $24.00 per disc so these 11 volumes would be $275 plus shipping.

You can get them - until they sell out - for $129 and free shipping in the United States. (It's $150 for orders outside the USA.)

Plus you get Pal Benko's My Chess Battles With Bobby Fischer (Volumes I & II on a single DVD) and Alexei Shirov's Best Endgames (Volume I) for free.

The entire set includes:

GM Alexei Shirov's Best Games Volumes 1,2,3,4 & 5. (Five DVD's with hours and hours of lectures.)

GM Anatoly Karpov's Best Games Volumes 1,2,3,4 (Four DVD's)

Bonus DVD's:

Shirov's Best Endgames Volume 1

Pal Benko's My Battles With Bobby Fischer

That's a total of 11 DVD's crammed with incredibly useful instruction from some of the world's absolute best players.
