Subject: If you have more than 1 engine, which is favorite to play and why?

I'm curious as to which chess engine is the favorite you like to play a game
against.  I am not talking about computer vs computer games, but rather you
against the computer (even if you do give yourself a big time advantage).  I'm
particularly interested in those with multiple engines (please list them) and
which one you prefer to play a game against AND WHY that engine is your
favorite.

My list of engines I own:

Fritz 6
Junior 6
Junior 7
Century 4
Chess Tiger 14
Gambit Tiger 2.0
Hiarcs 8

My favorite used to be Century 4 (but it does not yet run under Windows XP), so
my new favorite is Junior 7.  I like its style -- even more believable somehow
(that is hard to quantify) than Gambit Tiger 2.0 (my second favorite).

Perhaps the opening book of Junior 7 is better suited to its play?  Not sure.
