You were right with your comments about Junior.  It shows depth=11.  At a 6ply
search?  Bob was also right in his comments, as Junior and Hiarcs takes in some
cases minutes to make a move.  From this fact it is of no suprise to me to see
Junior ending up with a massive win over all programs.  In such a one sided
contest.
