Subject: Dissapointed IN CM8000

I am no longer a fan of Chessmaster, my testing say's that the new engine is
much weaker than the previous version. I no longer see Brilliant Tal like
attacks, or the ability to maintain the initiative which is a hallmark of
Chessmaster's play, all that I see now is chessmaster losing, especially when
playing against the tigers. I doubt if Chessmaster's Programmer even put any
serious work into improving the engine. I believe they knew that just the
mention of a new engine would bring more sales. I feel like a goffer and a Mark,
they got me good with this one!! Well I guess from now on my chessmaster8000
will collect dust on my hardrive along with Mchess 8, Genius6, and Zarkov.
