Not exactly

old versions of Comet were also tested
old versions of Junior that were not commercial like Junior4 are also in the
list and I guess that there are more examples(I believe that the new programs
that are tested are commercial but some old programs that were tested were never
commercial and I believe that palm tiger is going to be tested(it is commercial
but it is not in similiar strength to the other programs thanks to hardware
difference).
