  You are right.  That is complete nonsense and I have no idea why they have it
in their page.  When I read the pages I ignored the silly statement.  I probably
should e-mail them about it and see if anyone there cares to correct it.

  Thanks for pointing it out.

  They probably have little or no idea what really is going on in computer
chess, or what happened in the 1997 match with Deep Blue.  One hopes the
situation is better regarding their own topic.
