As you know stocks and shares have dropped past months/weeks quite
a bit. Still IBM is worth 167.3%

After match IBM stock went up most likely because of Deep Blue 22% in 1997
right after winning match.

So letting deep blue lose on the web now from all commercial progs
and a bunch of chessplayers who will figure out its weaknesses
would be risking 22% x 167.3 = 36.806 billion dollar
