thousand_time_less powerful (probably)

Many_times_weaker ?

thats something to argue about, because in reality there is no way to prove it.
But if you ask me then I would say that, the strength differs 50 elo + -, which
ever way you wanna put it.

deepblue as computer was very powerful, but not as a software, which was
"argued" many times in this forum.

I Kramnik really got the same program (which I doubt) he is playing,4 months
before the match, then it should be piece of cake for a player of his standard.
