Isn't this just obvious pre-game hype??  Of course he wants the public to
believe he is playing the strongest computer in the world.  If he wins, he is a
hero.  If he loses, it's because the machine is even stronger thana the one that
beat Kasparov.  Also of course, he is planning on being the hero.  If the public
believes that this program/machine is weaker than Deep Blue then what's the
point (besides the money he's getting)!?
