Subject: Tests for PC programs.

Are there any fairly accurate rating tests for PC programs?  I have the
One-Hour CCR test from the Winter '94 review but I'm uncertain if its even in
the ballpark.
Chessmaster 5500 on a Celeron 366 scored 2632 while Chessmaster 6000 managed
only 2608.   The real suprise was Fritz 5.0 when it brought up the rear with
2592.
I thought 6000 was stronger than 5500.  If it is why did it not do as well on
the test?  If I had the hardware available I'd play the two against each other
in a match just to see.  Has anybody ever played 5500 and 6000 against one
another on equal hardware?  If so I'd be interested in the results.
