i think the list is not right .i think junior is not better than hiarcs ,at
least not in the test that i have ran .but the fact is how strong a program is
,is all that matters to me .if you came out with a program that had no gui and
all you could do was play a game as either white or black and adjust the levels
.no setup position ,no features at all except that it would play chess as white
or black and you could change the levels .and it was 150 points stronger than
every one else i would buy it even if it cost $500 .people want the strongest
beast they can find .
