=Chess Programs= Initially, Millennium 2000 distributed the chess programs Chess Genius by Richard Lang and Shredder by Stefan Meyer-Kahlen, and after Marty Hirsch's problems with his former distributor Martin Stamer his program MChess Pro. A Windows compliant GUI, the Millennium Chess System (MCS) developed by Adrian Millett, was bundled along with Shredder and ChessGenius. Further MCS native engines were Nimzo 2000, SOS 2000, WChess and Zarkov.

=Dedicated Computers= In 2003, Millennium discontinued the high end computer chess software sector to focus on their core business, dedicated chess computers, electronic games and consumer products. According to Hein Veldhuis, chess computers were produced by Eric White, while David Levy is responsible for the programs. In 2015, the Millennium ChessGenius model with a program by Richard Lang was reinstated.
