The one program having shown the best results vs humans must be Junior. Remember
that bishop sacrfice it played? (against Kasparov?)
Regarding DF7 I have founbd that it is a losy endgame player. It looks like it
is missing some key knowledge in the that area.I have seen both Hiarcs 9 and
Shredder 9 going into difficult engames and still convert them to wins against
the DF7 several times!
