     I'm just taking an informal survery to see what everyone thinks is the best analysis software/database. Let me know!

I use the free version of Fritz. You can download it and it is a full version.
I can not judge the analysis quality but it is easy to use and works fine and its free.

How does it work? I have use chessbase light. Doesn't that have Fritz? Let me know! Thanks for responding.

I prefer Chessbase, although I've been experimenting a bit with Aquarium and ChessAssistant lately.  They each have their strengths and weaknesses.  Chessbase is perhaps the most user-friendly.

The free version of Fritz is 5.32.  I think it was originally designed as a DOS program, so its features are pretty basic.  You also might want an interface that can handle a free UCI engine like Rybka 2.2 which is probably a lot stronger than old Fritz.

It works very easy but you can download yourself and take a look.

I just realized I'm able to load games to Chessmaster: Grandmaster Edition and its analysis seems v decent

I have Fritz 11 and it works wonders for me in pointing out my blunders and other things.
