I tried time control of 9 hours/60 moves on my pentiumIII450 and Junior can see Bc4 with score of 1.31 pawns for white after 20 minutes and 8 seconds at depth 17. It jumped from depth 15 to depth 17. It may see the move in faster time control when it jumps from depth 14 or 15 to 16 and I did not check it. Uri
