My opinion is that the hardware does not change much.

4 processors are less than twice faster than 2 processors and the difference
against kasparov is very small.

It is better if Junior use 2 processors that they probably tested more.
With more than 2 processors if they did not test it enough there may be
unexpected bugs and it is better not to take risks.
