I agree that to the active chessplayer that feature is of the utmost value,
but to the beta tester i would go with the autoplayer, book.lrn, Tb support,
improved opening book and improved playing strenght as the number one reasons to
buy a prog and since CM8 lacks all of the above (except for playing strenght)
that would probably be the main discussion points in a beta tester friendly
invironment, as is ccc :-)
