Gambisoft posts: "Customers report unisono that JUNIOR 5 runs at top speed. We can confirm this. With 350 MHz the search depth starts double digit most of the time!" Results of the engine seem to support the claim that it is a very strong engine. However, when running it against Fritz 5 and especially Hiarcs on Junior platform I've got the impression that, fast as it may be, it is not intelligent enough... sometimes it seems to make moves that not even a patzer would make. It may go 2 or 3 plies ahead of Crafty or Fritz.. but at the detriment of position and basic chess rules.
