I wouldn't trust the Chessmaster 6000 Personalities too much. They are made by
weakening specific areas of the evaluation, so if you play with one personality
that has a high rating a few times, you may be able to find its weakness and
beat it. I also can consistently beat the ~1900 personalities, and I know I'm
not even close to that good. I would estimate my rating as closer to 1750. Just
an opinion however. I suggest playing against another program with an elo
handicap and comparing results. Or maybe just find someone who is of that
rating, and see how you do against him/her.
