I also have a P90. Perhaps I will pla against COMET90 to see if it's so
weak.
I tested on a K6233 mhz before and it showed a better performance (it
had a better position against Fritz which later slipped away). Mabe this
program is optimized to run on fast machines. Also, 60/5 is not a
control in which a program can show the full strength. (Why don't ou
play a 40/120+all/60?).
