I know that's the problem. But It really must be done one time by someone, even
manually, even with minimal games, and minimal other programs. But Deep Fritz
would be good to be one of them, as it has proven to be a tough test for CM8K
already. But maybe others are also a tough test.
  The way things are, it's nothing but speculation, and it's exasperating. Yes
CM6K and CM8K will also be fine.
