No

Not all the programs do the same errors.

Tiger15 could avoid the positional errors of Fritz in the
last game.

Nobody has Junior8 except Amir Ban and Junior7 is old
(more than one year old) so we do not know exactly what holes
were fixed by Amir.

I expect kasparov to win but I believe that Junior
is going to score better relative to Fritz.
