Mr. Clark,


Playing one program against another, you should have this shut down but for you
playing against the program would not really change the outcome.  For analysis
you would want the eval screen on.  Running Winboard in the background will
cause your program to play like a moron however.  If you have lots of RAM then
you will see less of a performance drop..
