IMO, the "revolution" seems to have something to do with the playing stryle of the "new generation" of programs. What I mean is that is seems that risky/attacking strategies are, for the first time, proving to be worth in computer chess. Maybe my memory is wrong, but I don't recall any other chess tournament with so many "surprises", meaning games that seem to be clear for one side, and then the result is the opposite. José C.
