Not seeing them doesn't bother me at all.  Had I known _nothing_ about
deep thought, and the later DB hardware, I might have a different opinion.
But I _know_ what deep thought did to _everybody_.  I have no trouble
believing that a new version of that processor would be even stronger...

IE their past performance showed they were _clearly_ the best there was,
computer-wise.  Which makes taking their word about the 40 games pretty easy
for me to do...
