Buy Junior 6a for the added niceties.  Really, it's the toss of a coin. They are
both excellent programs.  I bought Junior 6 from Mr. Schwartz here at Your
Move/ICD and can't wait to put it on my machine.

Actually, the nicest setup I have seen is Hiarcs 7.32 with Crafty 17.07 onboard.
Crafty is searching between 120,000 and 280,000 nps whereas Hiarcs only searches
between 20,000 and 80,000 nps on my PII 333Mhz with 64Mbyte RAM.  You can switch
to either program and see, whenever you want, the best course of action. It is
surprising to see Crafty stand up to Hiarcs pretty evenly on self play.

Don't forget to buy the latest chess computer program because life is short.
When you do buy--do Schwartz a favor and buy from him.

May the Schwartz be with you,

PS  The above is a flagrant commercial exhortation and is only my opinion.
