Subject: Irrelevance of the Computer [Hardware]

Kramnik vs DF:

It's interesting that the details about the hardware seem now almost irrelevant.
 Who cares?  It seems that even a hardware improvement adding the equivalent of
50 more rating points would not have made any difference.  IMHO : )

Perhaps, if the chess computer had smashed Kramnik, the manufacturer might have
started advertizing.  Now, the hardware manufacturer [Compaq?] probably wishes
it had never become involved.  Marketing!
