Exactly _how_ did you learn to do this so quickly? Looking at the programs of others? Asking questions that several of us answer as quickly as possible? Now how much is known about the _real_ design work of DB? How many know anything about "belle" which is where the chess processor design really started? Etc. There is much less known about DB's hardware, because hardly anyone is interested... >> >> > >And they met with brilliant success. > Didn't Kasparov lose the match?
