Who spoke about London. There were several times Fritz vs. Kasparov on
stage. Remember his famous appearance in "Aktuelle Sport Studio" (a very
popoular german tv-show) where the talk-master (Kuerten) was so heavily
upset about Kasparov not able to stand the loss against the program
(FRITZ ?!) that he did not gave him the price as it was planned before.
Don't forget that London was mainly INTEL beats Kasparov.
This was advertising campaign from INTEL for Kasparov. He needed money,
and INTEL was the sponsor. LATER IBM was used/misused to pay.

I never said that he wanted to win against GENIUS.
Maybe somebody forgot the Fritz-disc ... :-))
