Junior 6 is a good program.  The only major bug I have found is when using
auto232 it sometimes crashes.  If you don't use auto232 you will probably like
it.  I have tested it less than other programs because of the auto232 problems
but in the little test I have done it plays most programs very well but seems to
have a lot of trouble beating Fritz 5.32 at blitz.  I also like Fritz 6a.  It is
very similar with the same GUI/features.  I have about 25 commercial programs
and every one has bugs in them.  Most of the bugs are minor and you learn to
live with them.  The thing I like about Junior is it seems to create attacks or
problems for it's opponent more than most programs meaning it's very
active/aggressive.  All of this only my opinion of course.
