Sure they are middle of the range GM's but they have a few advantages that would make them god like in a simul situation. No fatigue, time management. I mean, Kasparov would basicly play a blitz game against them, where they have 2 hours to think! And it has been proven that computers are the best period at blitz. Kasparov would lose also due to his mental block against computers :) and would he lose! It would be a disater for him, maybe +10 -20 =2 On April 12, 2000 at 08:59:21, Christopher R.
