Well put, on my older version of CM3000 for example if you use the Tal
personality, it will addopt certain characteristics, but the moves all lack
Tal's imagination and inventiveness, it just graps certain elements of Tal's
games and gets away with sacrificing things away because it's a rather strong
program.  But calling them personalities is misleading because personality is
the personalities lack.
