Right!

When I beat CM8000, The Bearded One, I'll reload CM7000 and play it's head!!
But this isn't going to happen for a long, long time, so I'm quite happy with
the extra bells and whistles that CM8 has over CM7.  That should keep be amused
until I'm able to beat Deep Fritz... (which I'm too scared to play, so I just
use it for analysis!)

Best
