Chessmaster 7000 likes b6 (and briefly prefers Rb8?) for the first minute on a
P2-400, with a score of about 0.11 for White. Then, at 1:00 switches to Bg4
(depth 4/9) with a score of -0.06. THEN, after 1:52 (depth 4/10), keeps Bg4 but
now the score is 0.06 (White's favor). AND THEN, after 5:35 (depth 5/11), the
score changes back to -0.07. The line at that time is:

1...Bg4 2.Qxb7 Bxf3 3.gxf3 Qd7 4.Qb4 Ne6 5.Rd1 Rab8 6.Qc4 Rfc8
