Less than 46 seconds for a mate in 10 [that's what I got on my machine]?

It looked to me like neither beat it -- not even close.
Goliath Light saw a mate in 13 after 3 minutes, still.
Junior only 24 seconds, but a mate in 13.  On my machine, ChessMaster 8000 took
all of 12 seconds to find a mate in 13.
Shredder found a mate in 10 in 52 seconds (and I suspect that the hardware was
faster than my 950 MHz Athlon)

So ChessMaster looks like a clear champion to me.
