Hi CCC I am sure we all Miss Dr. Hyatt (I know I do!). However I think that it is very convient for Dr. Hyatt to disappear! now that computers are proving in front of the world that they are Grandmasters!! (Beating a 2673 at game\60 over several games is not an IM Performance!!) It seems now he doesn't have explain how it is possible for a so-called "weak International Master" ( Hyatts Acessment of Top Programs) to Defeat a Fide Elo 2677 in a match at faster than action chess time controls. In my view If fritz is capable of Beating A super grandmaster at game\60 which is a reasonably long game, then no doubt it is grandmaster strength. Ofcourse there is more than this isolated match to come to this conclusion, kasparov himself said in his recent speech in the united states that micro programs are now over 2600! Ofcourse We have many international masters and Grandmasters saying the same things, including Larry Kaufman. It is now starting to look very silly for anyone to say otherwise, those that maintain this viewpoint will no doubt lose credibility in the eyes of the computer chess public.
