For Starters If Deep Fritz were that Magical 2700+ number Like the SSDF Claims Then Huebner wouldn't have Drawn Every Game of their 6 game Match Secondly With All Do Respect No Commercial Program Has Played As Many Humans As The Deep Thought/Blue Programs and Also The Number of Games Vs. Rating Average Is Unequal (Not as many games as Deep Thought) If you Suggest that programs are So Strong why Then Hasn't One of the Top Commercial's Put up so much Money as to Play Against a Top 10 Opponent and Not a Couple of Unknowns? Tiger Didn't Beat All GM's and I don't think they were very Strong GM's someone even mentioned that Tiger was Lost in One Position. That may not say Much but I would Consider Rebel's Achievement or Deep Junior's Much More Impressive. Rebel because of So many Games against Strong and well Known GM's Like Rhode and Scherbakov and Deep Junior for Beating GM Leko and Heubner , Drawing Everyone else Besides Kramnik and Lautier. 8 Games are not really enough and 1 Tournament By no means makes a Computer a GM , They Can't Get The Title anyway, I would Like for this to be a possibility Then maybe someone would Try for their program to get it and we could Look to FIDE instead of SSDF . I hate that the list should be lowered by upto 200 points even by their own estimate the link is on their page. Another thing Tiger's Rating On an 866 Compared to the Speed Difference of the SSDF would Still Point to the SSDF's Given Rating for Tiger to be Wrong. Tiger is 2703 on a 1200 While 2788 against an average 2497FIDE On a Slower 866 Hmm Somebody is wrong Either all those players were lying about their rating or Could it be that the SSDF Is Off ...
