The computer hardware for this is not widely available but it will be here within three years. I assume that you would want to run four to ten programs at the same time. You would need to run parallel analyses with multiple processors or one mighty fast 4 to 6 Ghz processor. The processors will become much more energy-efficient with the smaller architectures. I don't think that you would want to burn 2000 watts all the time just to play a game of chess. Shredder 5 is a step in this direction. Again, we need bigger faster machines to handle all the data. More important than several incomplete programs is one big, very complete program with tons of chess knowledge.
