I noticed that CM4000 at easy mode (from the menu action -> quick
level setup or something like that) plays very poorly:
        -- opening book is off
        -- most of the time it just pushes pawns
        -- misses mates
        -- gives up pieces for nothing 
    etc. 

Looks like a good setup to learn chess!
