How much would you like to bet? I will also match SmarThink against these two programs Junior 7 and Hiarcs 8 after I reach 40 games against Ruffian 1.0.1 which lost to more games since I posted. 11 Junior 7.0 256MB Athlon 1200 MHz 2687 28 -28 633 57% 2638 12 Hiarcs 8.0 256MB Athlon 1200 MHz 2682 25 -25 784 55% 2643 Pichard
