I agree with all of you!
However, I have tested Junior 6 with Nimzo 8 and Deep Fritz, it's always the
same, Deep Fritz beats Nimzo 8  in _short_ matches with not a very immpressive
score. But Deep Fritz blows Junior 6 out of the water, and Junior 6 always blows
Nimzo 8 out of the water.
I would have to agree with Jorge that Junior 6 is a programm that will always
have lopsided victories with Nimzo 8 and poor results against Deep Fritz and
Fritz 6.

As for overall strength, yes, it has to be tested with upteen different
programs.
