According to an Interview by Leonxto Garcia at the WijK aan Zee. The World no.1
addressed the question of playing Fritz 6 or its succesors at Frankfurt Giants
in June. this was Kasparov statement " Ive informed the organizers that I won't
take part if Fritz 6 plays, then he mentioned I well remember the trouble that
Genius game me at the London Intel tournament in 1994"

PS: Now do you remember that Genius was only playing with a mere 80486 at 466
Mhz, Nowaday computer are 5 times faster and Fritz is much better than genius
wasin 1994.
