I have CM8000 and can already analyze an entire game overnight using CM8000. What benefit is there for using the same engine under the Fritz6 GUI? Perhaps I can switch engines while in the same Fritz6 GUI, to analyze a position with one engine (Fritz6), then the other engine (The King). NOTE--I do not play engine vs. engine tournaments or games--I only analyze my human OTB games from my club & tournament play. I like The King engine in CM8000 very much. It provides distinct moves and strong analysis. It finds nice combinations. Thanks in advance for the good help! --Steve Boak
