I don't have Junior 7, but it is famous for very deep wonderful sacrifices (some of which work and some don't, comparable to CSTal's). Gambit Tiger 2.0 and GT. aggressive didn't fascinate me much... compared to the standard Chess Tiger 14, it played less solid and less successful against comps.

Nimzo 8 has an extremely sharp style and in terms of combinative speed, it is still competitive and faster than default Rybka 232a in that specific sector. (I have versions 98 and 2000 too, but didn't test/use them often.)
