Kasparov,G - Comp Deep Blue Game 6

[D] rbr5/1p1q1p1k/pPP1pBp1/P2pP2p/3Q3P/6P1/4RP2/2R3K1 b - - 0 1

I've looked at this position every so often and wonder how come no program wants
to play pawn takes? I have looked at the analyzed game and either way Black is
lost much earlier. This i believe can only show how far programs are away from
being on this level as some people have made the arguement of "Well if this
program could search that many nodes or more" I think i asked about this as well
but this should clearly show that even if your computer searched twice as many
nodes as Deep Blue or even Deeper Blue it may find deeper tactics but it is
still looking at the position and evaluating it differently and not as well. The
same goes for any of us Compared to a GM or IM they Think about each position
Differently than we do.
