John,
if you had visited my site you would have found the information (hmm, they are
only in German, under conditions :-)):

- Time control 40/120+60 (although I still doubt that the King uses this time
control properly)

- Am playing on *2* PCs!

- TheKing is running under the Fritz 7 GUI with Odd Gunnar Malin's WB2UCI
adapter (03/05/2002) using the Fritz 7 opening book. Unfortunately King lost the
final game due to a hole in Fritz' opening book:
4Rb1r/p1Q2p2/5P2/k1p3n1/Npp5/5qP1/PP3P1P/R3K3 b Q - 0 27
GT2 calculated the last 2 moves, now the Fritz 7 book is over. King calculates
but only finds 27...Ka5 with -5.64/10 after 187sec. So game over.

- To have reference results to compare, first I use the default settings. So
with later tests one can see whether special settings are improvements over the
original settings or not.

When will be CM 9000 released btw?
