It could happen in 2002, but I don't like Fritz 7's chances. It will happen
before 2006(IMO). Computer speed will continue to double every year from what I
have read, and with better chess programs even the world champ will not be able
to stop the micro machines.

It has been predicted micro computers will lag 10 years behind the super
computer chess program’s in beating the would champion, Deep Blue beat GM
Kasparov in 1997.
