AFAIK they initially wanted Shredder (with Hydra and Fritz), but then Junior won the Comp's World Championship, so they preferred Junior over Shredder. As far as I did understand, replacing Fritz by Junior was not an option, because it is *the* main product of one of the sponsor companies in spain (AFAIK a chess software distibutor or something similar).
