You are implying that Deeper Blue's strength was from it's opening book. You are implying that Deeper Blue "depend only on book knowledge". You should give Deeper Blue a lot of credit for the very many moves it calculated itself. Or are you implying that Gary Kasparov "depend only on book knowledge" and that's why he lost the match? How do you know Fischer would have beaten Deeper Blue? Or is it just your opinion? >he has never been given the huge credit he deserves for making chess so >poplar, Of course he has. It's a well known fact that his achievements brought a huge resurgence in the poplarity (sic) of chess, throughout the world, as well as the USA.
