I am firmly with Hydra I don't care if anyone here thinks it as arrogance. For that matter I consider Garry to be more arrogant thinking World Championship to be his own property. he is maintaining high rating only because he is playing one tourney a year as rightly said by Vladimir Kramnik. I think Vladimir or Anand or for that matter even Leko is more eligible to represnt human race aginst such a computer thatn Garyy\ at the moment. In any Human vs Computer match I will be rooting for Human except when Garry is playing the match. Bythe way Gary is at his lowest this year as u can see Linares. I hope if such a match is conducted Garry is crushed. In hydra's case U r right that he played on the superior hardware but we should not comment on a hardware that has not played a official game against a GM so far. I personally doubt if Hydra will play very poorly if given a smaller amt. of Processing speed and RAM. Also I tjink Chilly as done great work in the chess code he will improve further to take computer chess to the new level where a machine will be able to beat human in closed positions involving long term plans. I will fill proud the day human is beaten in such a position. As for technology dominating Human beings is impossible. A chess Game should be taken sportingly. Everytime I read kasparov beaten we say oh well Human race has lost. Mind u Human race has won cos we have created the technology u should rather than seeing the flop side see the amt. of effort a chess progammer has put into his program. I don,t think there is any arrogance in whatever i am writing here because i am writing from my heart and noboy can change my heart
