You are missing the point.  The SP hardware is _one part_ of the entire
Deep Blue machine.  The chess processors are by far the most important part,
and they have nothing to do with the underlying hardware.  It is not clear
how well such a machine would perform at chess since everything is so
distributed yet a chess engine needs everything "close by"...
