I do not remember the figure but it may be around $25,000 to get an official rating from FIDE for a computer. There have been title tournaments organized with computer participation. A program should be able to get official rating/title from FIDE. Whether a player has to play a computer to get a title norm in a tournament is a different issue though. There has been enough emphasis on the SSDF rating list and another evaluation system for a program is loss of time. Sincerely,
