Any way to control this? The percentage is difficult to determine, but it will obviously be less than if CM was in the foreground. It also depends HEAVILY on which features you have turned on in Word, such as correcting spelling/grammar while you type, that little animated helper window that comes with Office, etc. Turning any of those off will make CM (and your computer) run faster and smoother. >2) If I play versus one of the fictional personalities, and then have CM6000 >analyze the game, is it the personality I just played that does the analyzing, >or is it always CM6000?
