I do not have unlimited time and I prefer to test Junior against the best
program.

I believe that Hiarcs7.32 is now the best commercial program  because I believe
that Hiarcs7.32 is better than Hiarcs7 and I also know that Hiarcs7 did very
good results in tournaments.

Here are the facts that I read about Hiarcs7:

1)It is not number 1 in the ssdf games but it is closed to be number 1 and I
believe that being 25% faster could push it to be number 1.

I see some strange results in the ssdf games.

I discovered that Hiarcs7 could not mate with bishop and knight against king in
the ssdf games when I read that the real hiarcs7 can do it.

on the other side the 28.5:11.5 result against Junior5 seems strange to me
(we will see if tania and mark young can produce something close to it with
Hiarcs7.32)


2)It is number 1 in enrique's tournaments(40 minutes per 40 moves on 2
identiacal pentium400 with 256M Ram)

3)I also read that mark young evaluated Hiarcs7 as his favorite program based on
games against many programs and also at tournament time control and his Fritz
has no problem of not enough hash tables.
