Interesting is of course a subjective definition, so its up to you :)

From a strength perspective I think they are about equal, if you consider Junior
= Hydra and 8xCrafty = Gandalf.  Of course, if you think Hydra 'computes on
water', to mangle an old english saying, then you probably don't agree.

Personally I would put Hydra as the favorite, unless Zappa improves a lot in the
next 4 months - which it won't, as I'll be busy taking classes and talking to
professors and in general being a graduate student.
