Ok then. I am not 100% sure this equation holds :-) In fact what reason do you
have to lable one of the world's very best chess players expert opinion as a
straight lie? He is a modest guy, not a Kasparov type who "perrsonally
guarruantees it wil tearr Frritz to pieces". He has seen games of both programs,
he plays Fritz, sees every update. Is HE compromised by interests or are YOU
prejudiced? Could Kasparov practice against DB? No. He could play 10 games and
back in the box it went. And then he could play another 10 games, where they
changed style between games. That's a nice way to score cheaply, compare that to
Fritz who shows up in each and every tournament and has been around forever. I
am *sure* under that conditions Kasparov would have won easily, because DB had
weaknesses like every other program. And K would have figured them out.

Best regards,
Bas.
