Please don't take this the wrong way. Would you consider, when writing a
message like this, giving some examples of what you mean? Some of the
criticisms you make must surely be a matter of taste, but you do say:
"Small.inaccurate.horrible" about CM6000's opening book. Could you give
an example or examples? That way we could have an interesting discussion.
I'm not a person who would buy a chess program, so I don't really care, but it
just seems a bit silly to say things like this without giving any basis for your
opinion.

Regards

Andrew
