Come on, this is capitalism and not socialism or communism. Any child could have told you before the match WHICH ideas IBM had. They are only doing what any company would do, to increase the fame and to maximize profit. >They are afraid to lose so they do not play against kasparov and >they do not play against other top players. They can only loose, because no other player would play that weak as kasparov has done it... >Kasparov is not perfect but I do not hate him like you. Ha - i don't hate him. I feel for him. He is a small child and unable to see the world from the view-point of an adult. Now , because he is seeing that iljumshinov can give him more money than his own organisation could ever do, he turns his flag and suddenly likes fide and fischer. Pah - he has no money and wants to get something from the cake. What an easy character. The sad thing is, you cannot make money with the name kasparov anymore. He lost against deep blue, and nobody is interested in players like him. He - who should behave like an idol and push chess in the world - has damaged the reputation and the image of all chess players in the world. With his appearances in the public, with his comments about Fischer, and with his behaviour when he loses. This guy is not worth to be Fide-world-chess-champion, because he is unable to fullfill the duties that grow out of this job. He is able to take the money, but not to pay his fees. And he wants the money... now ! He is a broken man. He will be part of a negative-chess-history.
