Why or what is strange? when the newer programs are not being tested
on a P200mmx. It is likely that assuming the SSDF only use K6-450's
and faster hardware in the future that CM6K will stay No 1 on a P200mmx,
and opinions will persist that maybe it is as good or better than the
others on faster hardware. The same as other opinions will persist that
moving there program down to a P200mmx it would prove stronger than the CM6K.

Cannot one of the programers write a file to add to CM6K so that it would
autoplay, and the SSDF can then test it on the faster hardware?.
I understand permission from Mindscape may be required.
Thanks.
