I have done all my matches using an AMD K6-2 500 Mhz 128 SDRAM and I have tested
the default settings against my previous CMQueen+ using one computer with both
settings. Therefore, I do not see any advantage unless both settings are using
different computers, such as my match against Chess Tiger 12.Oe, and after
halfway thru  I switched Computers and programs.
