That was a "long" time ago where tablebases and learning features were not as common. And IIRC there was a limited number of games, but I'm not sure about that. So the reasoning is perfectly legitimate. >Anyway i >thought the book and learning, ect, are part of the program? If Cm8000 lacks >those things , then that's part of its weakness. i think Cm 6000 participated in >a one tournament of note recently and it took third place, a very good result >for such an old program. I suppose you're thinking of the enthusiast tournament in Germany? In that case it was possible to avoid the unfortunate sideeffects of missing learning and book diversity. Not to mention the opportunity of the operator to use a book of his own and special settings. The premises of comparison are therefore non-existant. Regards, Mogens
