Chess Software Recommendations for Mac

Sort:

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good chess program for Mac.  I have a friend who runs a Mac and is interested in getting back into chess, so I figured this would be the best place to help him out.  I have seen that a number of the programs are just for PC.  Any help would be appreciated.

How good is your friend? The reason I ask is because there is already a built-in chess program for Mac OS 10.4, but it is sort of weaker than rybka or shredder.

Hey!  I found out he is running 10.3.9, or whatever Mac calls it, if that helps. :-)  Thanks!

I use & love Shredder 11, but Vektor is also nice & only costs a fraction of the price of Shredder.
