I agree. I don't think that because someone doesn't consider the match to be
legitimate that it doesn't count. If that's the case then "never" is the correct
answer because if it only takes one person not considering the match to be under
the right conditions, you will always have someone who doesn't think it was
handled correctly.

It's been done. Regardless of whether Kasparov played horrible, or whether Deep
Blue was a trillion times faster than home PC's, it's been done.

If we want to take guesses on the next time that it'll happen, then fire away.
I'm working more seriously on my program now so it shouldn't be too long :)
