OK, here are some explanations of my guesses:

Crafty is simply too strong to get any other score.

>>>Shredder - Jonny              1-0

We should be able to get a small edge in the opening and then win.

>>>IsiChess MMX - The Baron      0.5-0.5

These 2 programs are about equal in strenght, so this is the most guessable
score.

>>>Diep - Fruit                  0-1

Fruit is strong and Diep seems weaker this year, so this is the most reliable
guess.

>>>The Crazy Bishop - Deep Sjeng 0-1

Deep Sjeng is stronger than most people think and has a very good opening book!

>>>Zappa - Deep Junior           0.5-0.5

Zappa is strong and so Junior. Junior book may be known and something prepared
on it. So this score is 50% reliable (20% Zappa wins and 30% DJ wins).

>>>Fute_MT - Diep                0-1

Diep is stronger and had some bad luck, cannot believe it will not win this one.

>>>Jonny - Crafty                0.5-0.5

Jonny is an outgoing mine and should be able to score a good result anytime.
This is my best guess. 50% draw (15% Jonny wins and 35% Crafty wins)

>>>The Baron - Shredder          0-1

From a statistic points of views we already had our bad luck, so we should have
no problems on this one.

>>>Zappa - IsiChess MMX          0.5-0.5

IsiChess is not going to loose all games and seldom is a dangerouls opponent. I
believe this is best guess. 60% draw (5% IsiChess win and 35% Zappa wins).

>>>Fruit - The Crazy Bishop      1-0

Fruit is solid and clearly stronger, so it should win.

>>>Deep Junior - Deep Sjeng      0-1

I believe Deep Sjeng will give a bad surprise to DJ. This is my best guess. 60%
Deep Sjeng win (20% draw and 20% DJ win).

Zappa did score better than one thougth...it is expectable some bad games from a
statistics points of view...however it is a strong program.

Well, in one game only nearly everything can happen, so I gave my best guesses
from a statistic points of view...
