Yes, the programers are also clever people and have adapted.  Humans adapt
faster than programs, but it is getting harder and harder to stay ahead of the
programs.

World champ GM Kramnik will show us how, but he needs 3 months prep time to
trounce the programs.  It will be most interesting to see if he:

1.  Finds an Anti-computer strategy and uses the same strategy over and over to
trounce Fritz.

2.  If he employs different openings/strategies to win as white and draw as
black.

3.  Plays his own style and wins some as white and black and just beats Fritz
since he is a 2800+ player that had 3 months to prepare against the program with
Super GM seconds assisting.

Number 1 would be the most interesting to me.  But I will enjoy the match no
matter how it turns out.  :)
