I really should learn not to feed trolls but hey: It __DOES__ have a bad book. Its gui __DOES NOT__ steal resources. BUT its gui is also _NOT_ Auto232 and therefor to get it to autoplay they are using a bit of hack. This is probably not a factor but who knows. For example the CB adapter causes lots of problems with lots of engines. The others comments you made are just stupid. Also, one thing to consider is that Chesstiger, Fritz, Junior are all VERY strong engines, and I don't think ANYONE has made a claim that CM is stronger...well except for my Kurt Utziger (sic) and his personality :). Chessmaster 6000's gui on the otherhand continualy runs and takes cpu power regardless if pondering is on or off, hence the reason why people say that testing the two engines on one machine is pointless. It may be that Chessmaster 6000 is stronger, and if you truely belive it, why not get off you butt and get two computers and take the time to prove it...oh wait its just easier for you to make unsubstaited claims. My own belive (with out any testing) is the they are probably fairly close in strength. I also belive that Chessmaster 8000 would have much better results if it had: BOOK LEARNING Heck, anykind of learning. a better book! Anyway...enough ranting. JW
