>Will TACTIC's eventually REFUTE! Positional play?

In the end yes.

It is my (new) opinion that the nature of chess is just search.

Elo progress of (professional) chess programs...

1990 - elo 2000 (average depth 6-8) (TC 40/2h)
1995 - elo 2300 (average depth 8-10)
2000 - elo 2500 (average depth 11-13)
2002 - elo 2600 (average depth 12-14)

No way to stop it.

No suprise Kasparov lost against Deep Blue.

The sad future: it will be in the headlines when a grandmaster occasionally will
win from a computer.
