It wasn't then, but I wonder now. I am convinced that J5 is one of the very
best. Why people don't talk more about Junior 5 is a mystery to me. When I get a
new program, the first opponent I make it play with is J5. For instance, I got
these results with Nimzo 7.32 at game/25 on a PII-400 with 64 MB ht for each
engine, all with a fresh General book of Fritz:

N732-J5         6-8
N732-H732    15.5-14.5
N732-F532       9-9
N732-C16.6     11-3

As usual, Junior 5 was a tough nut to crack. In the mammoth tournament I
finished in January, Junior ended up second, but it was my "in pectore" winner.
