Subject: Strength of CM8000

What is the nature of the change(s) in the chess engine of Chessmaster 8000 over
7000 (or for that matter, 7000 over 6000, 6000 over 5500, and 5500 over 5000
would be interesting to hear about too)?

I bought 7000 a couple weeks ago, and now I hear that 8000 is potentially a lot
stronger.  So I've ordered that one too.  (I've owned *EVERY SINGLE* PC version
of Chessmaster: 2000, 2100, 3000, 4000, 5000, 5500, 6000, 7000, and soon 8000,
plus several Mac versions.)

I know that the series got strong starting with 4000, but haven't heard much
about the engine (just the features) since then.

Also, was there something about having to change the default settings or it
would play weak as Black?

Thanks!
