I think CmQueen+ is an excellent personality -- I have seen it outperform almost all of Chessmaster's "grandmaster" personalities in the longer games. I am not convinced, however, that CmQueen+'s settings are good for the very fast games, as it was defeated handily in my game/one minute tournament and barely beat Shakespeare in your ten-game test. Considering that Shakespeare's "strength of play" setting is only 82 compared to CmQueen+'s 100, the results are notable.
