Deep Thought was a great piece of HW/SW for it's time.  Just a few observations
when comparing to today's program:

1.  DT did that aginst GM's with average ELO of 2475 (not very strong for GM's).

2.  DT played against GM's that had far less experience (none) using
anti-computer tatics.

3.  There are a lot of tatical/strategic holes in DT games that modern
commercial programs do not make.

4.  Today's programs would crush DT.

5.  The GM's that DJ, DF, CT, Rebel, Hiarcs, The King have played recently would
crush DT.

6.  DT would have no chance in a match with a 2700 GM (today) that had 100 games
of preparation, Rebel played this GM even for 4 games.

7.  I am pretty sure I could crush DT today.
