Now that Deep Blue is retired, all the PC's can thump their chest and call out:
"I'm king of the jungle!"

Who's to argue whether or not the current PC programs could compete effectively
against Deep Blue?  We really don't know since we don't have a Deep Blue to play
against.

Really, I could claim that Deep Blue would never lose again.  Or I could claim
that now it would lose 100% of its games against Diep.  But without anything to
test again we are back to angels dancing on the head of a pin.
