I do not think that the conclusion here is shredder.
I believe that most people are intelligent enough to understand that there was
only one tournament and that Deep Junior won it convincingly(the difference
between Junior and Shredder is big enough and the difference in hardware is
relatively small and justifies only 0.5 points difference and not 2 points).
