No
Fritz has better hardware then shredder but it does not help it.

Not today about Junior.

I believe that the version that I have from 11.4.99 is clearly better than
Junior5 on the same hardware and the version that is playing is probably better
than mine(in softaware and in hardware).

The version of Junior that is playing is deep Junior and it is using 4
processors.
