Subject: How Close is LG2000 V2.8 compare to CM6000 Default Settings WOW ?

I used two different computers for this small test a Celeron 433 Mhz 64 MB RAM
and an AMD K6-2 500 Mhz 128 RAM. This is how the test was done, using the Big
Opening Book of LG 2000 V 2.8 and allowing the LG2000 V2.8 to use the AMD K6-2
500 Mhz with white and  Black using ChessMaster 6000 Default setting with the
Celeron 433 Mhz, then switching computers, programs and side. For instance if
LG2000 V2.8 used the AMD K6-2 500 and white side after the game was finish, I
simply replay the same opening line for both, but switched the side now LG2000
V 2.8 is playing the black side instead, with the same computer and Program;
Finally after two games were played, then I switched programs and Computers and
repeated the process for the next two games still using the same opening line up
to the end of the book, which is move number 11 in this case.  You will be
surprise to find out the result, if you have both programs. Now knowing what is
the estimated rating of ChessMaster 6000 using this Hardware you can guess how
strong LG 2000 V 2.8 really is. I will provide you the opening lines out og LG
2000 Big Opening Book up to move eleven 11. Both programs won two games each and
it was not always the programs using the best computer either in this case
the AMD K6-2 500 Mhz the result was split in both ways. I will simply provide
you with the Opening lines and let you do you own testing.

[" Using the same opening book line up to move 11 "]
[" Programs used LG 2000 V 2.8 and ChessMaster 6000 Default settings "]
[" Results 2 Games each not always with the same side of the board and with the
same Superior Hardware for instance the AMD K6-2 500 128 Mhz "]
[" Time Control 60 moves in 15 minutes per side "]


1.Nf3 Nf6  2.e3 e6  3.d4 d5  4.Bd3 Bd6  5.0-0 0-0  6.c4 dxc4  7. Bxc4 a6
8.Nc3 b5  9.Bd3 Nbd7  10.a4 b4  11.Nb4 Bb7   etc........................

Both Programs won two games each not alway with the same side or computers you
will have to pit then yourself to believe it and wonder in amazement.

Then I decided to test it against my CMQueen+ Settings using the same process of
testing mentioned above and the Result was, won 3 Games and one draw in favor of
the CMQueen+ settings. Now in previous testing between my CMQueen+ settings and
the default CM6000 settings, out of 30 games using the same time control
mentioned above, but allowing both settings to select their own opening
out of the same opening book CM6000, the CMQueen+  W 19 L 5 D6.
