To me the point is moot.  It's like arguing about precisely how fast a dinosaur
could run.  Since they are extinct, who really cares?  You're not going to meet
one on the street tomorrow.

Deep(er) Blue was a good chess program / machine.  As for exactly how fast it
ran, how good it was, how deep it searched... why do you care?  It's dead,
extinct.

I wonder if we're going to be seeing questions about deep blue for the next 30
years.  I suspect yes.  If so, IBM did the world of computer chess a true
disservice with their PR-motivated deep blue matches.
