Which is it? Is it both? Is it neither? I think it's both. I think that a large group of GM's (including Kasparov!) are 'psyched out' by computers and gripped with unreasonable fear. They are willing to go to wild extremes to avoid playing them. It is definitely true that GM's are positively clueless about where computers are strong and where they are weak (consider the time controls that Anand took for the battle against Rebel, for instance). Here is one person who is willing to take a stand for the group which will cost him real money. In a sense that is very brave, but it is in a support of a cause of cowardice! I'm not even sure if I like it or if I hate it!?
