Chessmaster8000 has some playing qualities.
You cannot beat shredder2(p200) 3-1 without some playing qualities.

A lot of program suffered against shredder2(I remember that nimzo8 on the K6-2
450 lost against Shredder2 in the first games and I guess that it could win the
match only because of the fact that shredder2 has no learning function).


The main question is not if CM8000 has some playing qualities but if it is
better than chessmaster6000.
