Very often, CM8000 is the *best* engine at finding complex mates, and its general play is approximately at the same level as that of other top programs. >...

It's the second-biggest problem with this program (the biggest being that it requires the CD-ROM _every_ time). Hey John Merlino, do you hear this? The engine in CM8000 is world-class, but you guys crippled it in two key ways. Please fix these or come out with a different version for adults -- with fewer glitzy features but not requiring the CD-ROM each time!
