CM 6000 is a very strong engine to play against. It is in par with the top engines available in 1 hour or more, it is quite good under these times against other engines. One feature which I find missing and very disappointed is the lack of book learning. And for this reason all other pro engines which offers this feature will come ahead of CM in the long run, the problem is CM will always play the same variation and choose the same line unless one edits the book opening which is a pain to do.
