I think that Fide should first organize a qualification tournament for computers when only the best programs against humans cna play against kasaprov,kramnik and ponomariov in case they score more than 50%. It is possible to give the top programs to play in a sweningen tournament 120/40 against 8 players when the players get 6,000$ for a win and 3,000$ for a draw. The human opponents should be the highest rated players who agree to play in these conditions. The programs can be: 1)Junior 2)Fritz 3)Shredder 4)Tiger 5)Rebel 6)Gandalf 7)Hiarcs 8)Chessmaster Prizes are 64 games* 6000$=384000$ If Fide can give kasparov 1,000,000$ they will have no problem to give only 384,000$ for this tournament that seems to be more interesting because it is less clear if the humans are going to win.
