Yup.

Some results played on my two IBM/Cyrix 6x86MX PR-300,
60 minutes per game and side:

Junior 6 - Hiarcs 7.32: 0-2
Junior 6 - Hiarcs 6.00: 0-5

This was still the original Junior 6, not 6a.

Surprising results, but as you said, some programs just have problems with other
programs...

Greetings,

Heiko.
