Kurt,

I had my settings tuned for CM8999 pretty well for CM8000.  It could beat
Chessmaster (with equal 128MB of hash) with scores of about 65%.  It also fared
well against other strong personalities.  (Same machine, ponder off).

However, the same settings in CM9000 lose against CM128 by about the same margin
at various time controls.  Looks like it's back to the drawing board for me.
<sigh>
