Windows or other? (General)

? I was toying with the idea of converting the HGIYC articles to ChessBase
? instead (they have quite a neat question and answer capability), but this
? would tie us even more to Windows and ChessBase.

My preference would be to have as much of it as possible in ChessBase format, but that probably wouldn't be the majority opinion. It isn't the most user friendly program in the world, but it is really nice once you get used to using it. This would be great for the tactics puzzles too since there are times, usually one puzzle a month, where I don't get the solution, or I question what if the 'opponent' made a different counter move. It would be nice to be able to fire up the engine to see what it thinks of my variation.
