      My belief is in software end of chess computers, we have ended the huge
quantum leaps that came earlier in the 20th century.  Yes, there will be
improvements, but like I said not exponential in nature.
      On the hardware part of the picture maybe the speed of the computer will
have a limit within a decade.  However, "(Speed of) Light Computers" are being
experimented.
      If you wish to talk about horizontal integration (as in what are the
possibilites), then use my email.
      The vision of the future is more dynamic than the chess board can do.

      The Soviet Union's official sport was chess.  (The Soviet Union is now
dismantled.)  Richard Lang's software, Chess Genius, uses much less than 100,000
bytes.  This main program has a rating of about 2400 FIDE.  Give Richard Lang
credit for making the chess world turned upside down.
