Yes... if I look at the programs in the current SSDF list, we currently have

K6-2/450           Athlon 1200
------------------------------
Fritz              Fritz
Gambit Tiger       Gambit Tiger
Chess Tiger        Chess Tiger
Junior             Shredder
Shredder           Junior
Nimzo
Gandalf            Gandalf
Hiarcs
SOS
Century
CM8000
Goliath
Crafty

When Hiarcs (8), Century 4 and maybe Goliath will join the Athlon group, it's
still only 9 programs. I don't doubt Yace/A1200 would perform better than
Nimzo/K6-450, so the top 10-chances would be very good (if programs are counted
only once). It could be a narrow match with Goliath, for the 9th place.

New versions of King, Crafty and/or i.e. SOS tested on A1200 too, could make it
difficult though. Probably it's a matter of the right "moment". Anyway, it's
obvious that Yace belongs into the group of ~ top-15 programs mentioned above.

Except those which aren't available... (Chess Wizard, Insomniac, Ferret, Dark
Thought).
