For some reason CM8 have stopped working on my cpu (all other progs run
flawlessly) but when it did run on my cpu it was so full of bugs, that i had to
laugh. As to the strenght of CM8, it did not win any tounaments against winboard
engines, it was chrushed by Gandalf only winning few games out of about 80 (in
serious tournament games). I could beat it, and the books are poor.
it has no book.lrn to compensate for that, it has no endgame support and to my
experience the strongest hash setting is still 1MB lol
If by some miracle i could make it run again on my cpu i would not use it.

Jonas
