Matthias,
I don't think computer are solely responsible of this phenomenon.
Also Capablanca and Fischer were prodigies and no personal computers were
available to them...
I'm wondering if these child prodigies are prevalently tactical monsters at
their younger age (like comps), or if they also can devise a refined strategy
like the most expert (and older) gm's.
