Subject: shredder 6 vs chessmaster 8000

before i bought shredder 6 i read alot about it saying how much more powerful it
was compared to chessmaster 8000. After i bought it i ran many tests, 12 with
chessmaster vs shredder in their own gui's by copying moves and chessmaster won
every game...i then converted the king engine over to shredder's gui using
malin's method (without the opk number which will make chessmaster move
instantly without thinking) and ran engine to engine match and chessmaster still
won all 12 matches. Could it be that chessmaster is using more cpu resourses?  i
checked that out and chessmaster uses way less..1,288 k compared to shredders
267,404 k....does anyone else get differnt results?
i'm testing with a pentium 4 1.4 ghz with 384 megs of ram.
i have given shredder every advantage including its learning ability and i
copied alot of chessmasters opening books and saved chessmaster wins over to
shredders learn from games option....so is shredder really weaker than
chessmaster?...every review on shredder vs chessmaster on the net that ive read
says shredder is way better.

does anyone know if shredder 6 classic with triple brain feature on is more
powerful than the regular shredder engine?

does anyone know of a method to convert the shredder engine to use in
chessmaster gui?

if anyone has any more opening books like some from the mega database cd from
chessbase for shredder to attach in an email for me would be greatly
appreciated...:)...i have alot of cool progs n stuff to exchange for em
