I am not sure if losing 5:1 or 6:0 against kasparov is going to increase
Junior's sales.
I expect kasparov to win at least 5:1 every commercial program.

I think that programs need to prove that they can win weaker players before they
play against kasparov.
I think that the fact that kasparov agreed to play against deeper blue without
asking first that deeper blue win 2600 players and 2700 players in matches was a
mistake and I do not like repeating this mistake.

No human could be the world champion without beating weaker players than
kasparov and I do not think that machines should have more rights.

I think also that computers should play against humans in tournaments and  that
the decision not to let computers to play in most tournament is wrong.
