Here is my take on computer evaluations:  I expect crafty to win all games
against a GM if the score is (say) 1.5 or higher, and crafty has no more than
a 1 pawn advantage.  That is 1 pawn + a lot of positional edges.  I would
expect to draw positions where the score is 1.5 and crafty has two or three
pawns.  The opponent has a lot of positional compensation.

scores like +2 where it is 2 pawns ahead are hard to measure and could end
up as wins or draws.
