7x7 isn't solved by computer, but the best ones play it extrememly well.
When looking through sample game trees of small board computer play, my impression was that by far too many "trivial" moves were not analysed (properly): single passes or seemingly bad plays. When I studied J1989 manually, I had to learn that single passes or seemingly bad plays can be good moves much more often than one fears. Therefore I am extremely sceptical when some claim is made about NxN was "solved" by strong programs. Usual strength is not a good measure here. Proofs or proof play are appropriate.
