I am not sure if 10b is better.

This has 2 reasons:

1) I am fed up playing CST again and again. All the games I have played since
CST1 were clearly disappointing, and the only thing I get is Thorsten's "you use
the wrong version", no matter if the commercial was used or not. MAYBE I'll play
5-10 FINAL games with CST2.03 on the faster machine so that Thorsten will not
have excuses any longer, but at the moment I am sick of these excuses.
I can hear Thorsten "you used the default settings, you should have taken my new
ones" and again and again a neverending story. Sorry, not me.

2) sometimes someone writes=posts from the office where CST is not and should
not be installed. ;-)
