Dear Colleagues,

Could somebody who has experience using this software share some views
on its suitability in the following?

(You may email me directly instead of posting it on CCL if you do not
wish to perform a public evaluation of a commercial product.)

(a) Goodness in UV-Vis spectra simulation : overall shape and lambda max
for transition metal complexes.  My main interest is in 3rd. row
transition elements.

(b) Solvation models, mainly of water.  How well it incorporates its
effects on orbital energies, and UV-Vis spectra?

(c) Any other points that you wish to highlight for consideration...like
recommending another software!

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
H. K. Yeoh

Hi Aaron

There are several sites that may have done the job for you. Try 
www.chemfinder.com and www.webmolecules.com - these both have large 
repositories of molecules.

This is what I try : doing it by myself, and letting source code open.
Those questions may have a strong impact on education.
The day when a teacher realizes that he will not be able to
teach without the use of a commercial software is certainly
a bad day. And this is what happen to me recently concerning the
first week of a distance learning course on Internet : there was 
a bolt, and student not having access to some commercial
software should directly go to the week 2 course material...
A bit annoying when you observe that the bolt comes from
a pretended non-lucrative international organization. Note that the 
bolt can be double : software and databases. Some crucial databases
are under monopolistic hands : a public research patrimony,
resold again and again.
