Well what are the early choices/rankings for Computer Chess Champion? What about Crafty, will Bob be there on a 32 processor experimental Dec machine running at 1GHZ/processor? Also, I have been a long time believer that the Top Programs should be allowed to compete for the World Chess Champion, I wonder if any Human GM's are up to the task of competing against the Programs this year? How would Kamsky do? I am interested in opinions, but I would be more interested in real participants (GM Soltis maybe, got the better of DBjr in one game). I loved watching Chess Genius rip the GM's in the old PCA events (Kaspy got beat, Anand held his own). My opinion, Human GM would do well (top 3 finish), but would wear down and not win the whole thing (see Kaspy vs Deeper Blue). Several GM participants would be better, but should play each other as well. I think this would be a marketing dream. Intel and AMD where are you? Wish a GM or two would play and prove me wrong. I would love to see the Programs go down in flames, but my opinion is the GM's would be left burning (or at least smoldering). :) Best Regards, Chris Carson
