I >think he is a very bad person to use as an expert. Can you think of a better expert on _chess_? Have you ever seen, with your own eyes, Kasparov go through a varation on a chess board? He might not be the reigning king on 'how to beat a computer at chess', but by God his opinions are far from 'unsubstantiated'. Do you think Kaspy has never played a computer on a PC, and that he's just pulling these opinions from his ass? I am quite sure that he probably has entered positions into <insert commercial program here>, and has been surprised by what a little 'ol PC will do nowadays. I don't think his claims are 100% on the dot, but I don't think he's talking non-sense either.
