Hello Geert!
Maybe you know , after my posts in this forum and others , that I am fond of
gambit play and brillancies
So , my advice is not completely "impartial" but it is supported by my
experience
When running on a "mono" , Deep Fritz8 is not stronger than fritz8 and as it's
more expensive....
Conversely , junior8 was weaker than junior7 to the point of tactical skill
( IMHO , J7 was the strongest tactical engine ; Ifyou are in doubt ,you can see
a little part of its best games on criticalchess@yahoogroups.com )
I could test intensively junior8 , Deep Junior8 and its "clones" (or shall I say
Beta versions ) Deep Junior8YY , And Deep Junior8ZX , that are on the same CD as
Deep Junior8
On tactical openings DJ8 , and mostly DJ8ZX are significantly stronger than
J8 , with a style reminiscent of junior7
Maybe , Dj8YY is stronger on positional openings , but , as I am not a fan of
QGD.....
Then , My advice is to buy the CD of DeepJunior8 , and use chiefly DJ8ZX
Friendly Yours
