I guess that 2700 and I assume in this reply that hsu modifies deeper blue
to have learning.

I guess 2630 with the same assumptions.

pruning is important and I guess that the main disadvantage of deeper blue is
the fact that they did not prune like the top programs of today and did some
extensions that wer counter productive.

Better pruning and extension rules and better evaluation function.
