people always like to say that deep blue had a great eval and so far better than
any pc program . the reality is that if you could run hiarcs at 200,000,000 nps
it would be rated 3000+ elo .its 90% hardware 10% software .i mean if you could
run sargon III at 200,000,000 it would be a super grandmaster .i think also what
helped deep blue was the program was not available for kasparov to practice
against .
