I played a game as white in which I made a real mess of things. The

I've analysed the game using the free open-source chess engine
'crafty'. The results of the analysis can be found at:

http://www.g8wrb.org/chess/paupau.pgn.html

Would anyone with 'chessbase' (preferably a few different versions
from a few different people) be kind enough to analyse the game and
give their results? I hope this analysis would useful to not just
myself, but others too, since a comparision of different programs.

The analysis was done at 120 s per move (i.e. 60 s for white, 60 s for
black). The machine was rather an odd-ball, being a Sun Ultra 80
running 4 x 450 MHz CPUs each with 4 MB of cache ram. My guess is that
the performance would be similar to a Pentium running at 1.5 GHz or
so, although I've never compared resuls with this machine to a
Pentium. Neither have I optimised the code in any way.

You can see the analysis by 'crafty' thinks I played the wrong move at
5, when I played Be3 (which put me 0.21 pawns down) rather than the
Ng5, which would have given me an advantage of 0.72 pawns. It also
thinks I played move 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 .. wrong, but by this point I
was in a real mess anyway.

Dear Dr. David Kirkby,

I would be very glad to analyse your game with chessbase. Tomorrow I
will send you the results!
