Chess Computer Games

What is the best computer chess game ?
Best includes mostly performance, analysis, ability to induce progress.
Hi,
I am a Chessplayer with Elo over 2400. I think it depends what Level you have to answer this question.
Fritz 9 is for sure stronger as Chessmaster, but there are a handfull of programs who are better as Fritz. The User Interface of Fritz/Shredder/Junior (they use all the same Interface) is very elegant.
But if you want to LEARN Chess then i think is Chessmaster better. The Level of Chessmaster is still strong enough to kick your a**, hehe. The Learning section of Chessmaster is much better as the Trainingspart of Fritz.
World Championchip 2006:
1) Junior 9,0
2) Shredder 8,5
2) Rajlich
4) Zappa 7,5
Fritz 9 did not compete. But I think that Fritz would not have won this tournament. I guess that Fritz 9 would have been around Place 4-5.
Chessmaster would very likely not had a chance under the Top 10 programs ... if all Top programs would ply.
Here is the World Rankinglist for Chessprograms:
