Dead wrong Bob, Again your horrible memory is the problem.

Comm line went down before c4, not before o-o. I have eye witness
report from Frans Morsch here. He was sitting 1.5 meters away
from Deep Blue there and of course being opponent he asked
what happened. Comm line did *not* go away at that time. comm line
was excellent.

They played o-o because the thing knew shit from chess!

Older versions of diep (1997) need about 8-9 ply to find g3 to be
better. Current version 10 ply which in itself i already consider
bad. They didn't find it at all of course.

It is the c4 move which deep blue played nearly instantly. However
DIEP sees instantly that c4 loses, in fact it doesn't consider playing
it even. Nevertheless we know that even with 500k nodes a second older
versions of DT they only can search 8 ply, so it is logical that they
do not see c4 to be losing if they play instantly a move.

Here what diep would play there:
