In my few idle time I am testing Shredder 8 on tournament level versus Junior 8
(because I will operate Junior 8 in the computerchess tournament in Bernburg in
March this year). While playing I became witness of this interesting game:

Shredder 8 on a P4-2.53GHz and Junior 8 on my Celeron@1539MHz, both 256MB hash.
A remarkable result, considerung that Shredder showed almost +3 in move 30 with
search depth of 19.
Position before 30.g5 +2.98/19:
[D]3r2k1/3b2p1/1q2p2p/4P3/3NQ1P1/bP5P/PpP1N3/1K1R4 w - - 0 30
Current standing is surprisingly 4-2 in favour of Junior.
