Subject: Deep Blue vs. Fritz (Kramnik's opinion)

Quote from an interview with Vladimir Kramnik:

Kramnik: I spent some time last summer studying Fritz because the match was
originally supposed to take place in October 2001 and had to be postponed
because of September 11. I was testing Fritz on a Notebook with a 600 MHz
processor. I let Fritz replay the games of Deep Blue in 1997. It was a great
shock! In almost every position Fritz was suggesting objectively better
variations. The program is clearly stronger than Deep Blue, whatever the
hardware.

The full interview can be found on the website of Chessbase, Hamburg.
