I think alot of people underestimate CM5500 and also now CM6000, If these games
played against Rebel show how good the CM5500 chess engine is, I can only
imagine how strong the new CM6000 program must be.

People can come on here and say, yes CM6000 is strong but it could not compete
with the likes of Rebel 10 or Fritz, well until there is some thorough testing
to show just how strong or weak CM6000 is, I am going to come out and say that
it is in the top three of chess program on the market today.

I know there are quite a few people sitting there thinking, rubbish, No way. But
I CM6000 has, well pretty much flogged all freeware programs at 40/2 time that I
have played manually. And I have loaned a friend my copy of CM6000 and he is in
the process of playing Fritz, at 40/2 hrs and then going to play a 5 minute
series of matches, So far in the 40/2 hrs, CM6000 is leading 3.5-2.5 over Fritz.

I am trying to get my hands on the games to post, but so far my money is on
CM6000, to give a whipping to Number 1 Fritz.

The settings for CM6000 for those matches are the ones from the box but with
hash increased to I think 60 megs, But I will find out for sure when I can get
the games and details of him.

Lets just say he is not happy at the moment, because he is a Fritz mad player,
and he does not like seeing his best program lose.
