First of all. Junior is a great Program.

I dont hate Junior!  I love this program. It is a very good program against
humans. And respect about the games in Dortmund you are completely in a mistake.
What other kind of program can reach 2703 elo in a high and very good tournament
like Dortmund? ... Junior score 50% and for me, it is a very good score against
all of this GM´s. The best in the history of computer chess programs.  -You dont
understand the real mean of this.

The clear point is that any program in the World can win against Kramnik if he
will have to get a copy of the program 3 months before. Look at Wayne said, and
Uri post, they are completely right about this unfair competition..
