Nigel Short, the British former world championship finalist, said that man
versus computer matches had popular appeal. "They attract huge interest globally
and many people are thrilled by them," he said.

Mr Short said that such a contest was legitimate as an exhibition match, but he
opposed the introduction of computers into regular international competitions.
"That was a serious mistake. We don't make sprinters run 100 metres against a
Ferrari or make weightlifters compete against a forklift truck," he said.
