Here is some interesting data that supports that the SSDF is a
valid measure of both Comp vs Comp and Comp vs Human strength (FIDE)
and that the programs are playing at GM strength:

Comments:
For the 40/2 results: 4 TRP's above SSDF and 5 TPR's below SSDF
For Aegon 97 results: 3 TPR's above SSDF and 4 TPR's below SSDF
No real difference between 40/2 and Aegon 97 results compared to SSDF
Also note that excluding the Aegon 97 results (using only 40/2 games),
Rebel has a 20 consequetive game (needed to establish a FIDE rating)
rating of 2595 (this is equivelant to FIDE #100 rated player). The
average GM rating is 2524 and this Rebel rating would be on 200MHZ to
400MHZ hardware.
It is also worth noting that both the 40/2 and the Aegon 97 time
controls are valid for FIDE ratings. Rebel has two TPR's above 2650
(FIDE) on this HW.
