It is possible to beat that
Deeper blue beated Kasparov 3.5-2.5

If microsoft can beat the world champion 4-2 or better than it then it is going
to be clear that  their result is better than IBM's result.

They will have to generate a clearly better program than Deeper blue in order to
do it because I believe that the best humans learned from chess programs so they
are better players today.
