think ahead and plan its own strategies. It tries to anticipate the move
you are likely to make, and calculates its responses for that move
while you're still thinking. If the computer has guessed correctly,
there's no reason for it to keep on calculating—it immediately plays
the move it has already found! Note that the computer does not think
on the opponent's time on the Fun Levels.

2.11 Power Down/Game Memory

You may interrupt your game and turn the computer off by pressing
GO/STOP. The display will show Stop?, and pressing GO/STOP
once more to confirm will turn the unit off. Play is then suspended,
and the computer will store your game for up to one year. When you
switch back on again, you can continue from where you left off! If you
decide not to turn the computer off after pressing GO/STOP once,
simply press CLEAR to cancel.
If no keypresses or moves are made for 20 minutes, the Auto
Power Down feature will automatically turn your computer off. To
continue, press GO/STOP to turn the computer back on. Note that the
computer will not turn itself off while it is thinking about a move, or
while Stop? is being displayed.
