Review of Micro*Bridge Companion rates it top Mac bridge
program! The article was:
"Bridging the Mac: A review of Bridge Deluxe, Bridge
7.0,
BridgeMaster, and Micro-Bridge Companion",
by Bob Thyken, pp. 124-145, BMUG Spring 1994 Newsletter
Summary: Micro-Bridge Companion is the best. By far.
In the 15 comparison categories, Micro-Bridge Companion
came in first by a wide margin in all but 1 - in "Sounds/Visuals",
it tied for first. It was much stronger (bidding and
play), much faster, and took much less RAM & disk
space than the competition. It had superb on-line documentation
(printed docs are weak). It was hard to find: see
"Ordering Info" file for sources. One quantitive
comparison: the author took 12 bridge columns (from
Omar Sharif's column - who endorses Bridge Deluxe,
one of the "other" programs), and had each
program play them. On each of the 12 hands, he awarded
match points (IMPs) to each program based on how well
they did with respect to the worst result for that
hand. Micro-Bridge Companion got 121 pts, the other
programs 73, 48, and 48 points.
