Humans rasing cars was a popular event when the car was very, very new! In 5 or 10 years I think the human vs computer in chess will feel just as stupid, but until then I feel its great fun. It did not stop people trying to be the fastest runner, even if no one would race a car on feet anymore. So I do not think it will be the death of chess for us humans either. Torstein
