The average chess player is around 1500 USCF and for those people CSTal is not
even close to Chessmaster for entertainment/training/playing levels/ etc. etc.
etc.  CSTal is relagated to just a curiosity now.  When it was developed it
could have been a great program if the programmer had not been so stubborn about
giving it maximum knowledge while sacrificing depth.  It also has a couple of
bugs which he never bothered to fix (much like CB).  Other than that it is
interesting to play against.
