I don't trust test positions, but everyone I have helped on ICC with CM has had
their rating go up using what I know about CM. Which is close to your settings
in CM5555. So I do think their is a big difference. Is my setting better then
fritz 5. My testing says no. Is CM5555 setting better then fritz 5, My testing
also says no. But it is close. So I do think it is possible for there to be some
settings that my be better then Fritz 5 and all the rest. If CM6000 hits the
market with a good opening book with learning and the engine is just a bit
better then the old. CM6000 will be a powerhouse. But only testing will tell.
