This is what we were waiting for a long time for a P.C. program to be able to play a la par with a GM rated over 2500 on a regular P.C. I remember 13 years ago reading a statement from Larry Kaufman saying that it would take a least 15 years for a P.C. program to beat a 2500 rated player on a P.C. giving the fact that processors were doubling speed every year.
