hi bob: you mentioned in you recent post regarding hsu's chip being capable of doing 1 billion nodes per sec-is this an advanced version of the "chess chips" which were present oin the deep blue?-as far as i remember the deep blue had a number of general purpose powerpc processors and a number of what they termed "chess chips" if this is so 1)how can one single chip be twice as powerful as the entire deep blue, which had hundreds of processors? 2)are these chess chips of deep blue and the superchip of hsu good for only chess calculations or can it act as a general purpose processor? thanks rajen
