There are several sources of chess games in PGN format. Some are well annotated: ChessPublishing, ChessBase Opening Encyclopedia, Modern-Chess, books from Everyman Chess. Some are less annotated: Chess Informant, Chess Assistant, Chessgames, The Week in Chess. A PGN reader is necessary. I'm familiar...

Kudos on the training feature! I'm not sure when it was added but it is definitely valuable. Setting up a training file is a great excercise in understanding the opening. It's not only about the moves. Adding hints, either in text or voice recordings, challenges your thinking. Finally, doing the tra...

COW saves your work automatically. This can have pros and cons. Sometimes I have an Ebook that is in pretty good shape. I want to make it better, not worse with excessive (junk) analysis.

Thanks for the tip. However, I do not have a wired network between laptops.

I've experimented with sharing files across two or more computers. It works fine to use drop-box for a one-time transfer from my computer to my tablet. I have not been able to connect two computers and work seemlessly between them. I might want to work on one computer and, while I'm recharging it, g...

This is working very well. I have three opening books on the Classical Siclian from Modern-Chess. They are in PGN format and hence readily imported into COW. One is authored by GM Cheparinov, one by IM Kanmazalp, and one by a team of IMs/GMs described as "Workshop." Each Ebook includes com...
