I have played over 600 games using the faber\pilz settings on CM6000 against the
standard setting and other settings found on the web. In all my results that I
have posted here before the faber\pilz settings win clearly against all other
settings and also against other programs namely fritz 5.0, rebel 10 and CM5500.

To say the faber/pilz settings don't work on CM6000 in my opinion just is not
correct. The settings beat all others endlessly.

Computers used are two 233 mmx with 64 meg ram, CM 6000 settings at 16 meg hash.
