I would seriously doubt that Deeper Blue would be faster than Deep Fritz is. The
only way to know this for certain would be, if we have a version of Deeper Blue
converted to run on regular P.C.  Now the key factor is not just speed, but if
we are going to compare programs alone; Deep Fritz, Deep Junior, Chess Tiger or
Shredder have more Chess Knowledge than Deeper Blue.
