Thats one game up as proof also. Deep Blue team started claiming >victory. downright ridiculous also? we are talking about very different things here. from ONE game you cannot claim that anybody is better, like it was done from the DB prototype-fritz game. in the kasparov match, we are not talking about claiming "DB is better than kasparov", but about "DB won the match". you can NEVER argue with that kind of thing - it happened, DB won the match. i'm not arguing that DB prototype did not lose against fritz - only that it is meaningless. BTW, if you ask me if i believe that DB was better than kasparov i would also say no... aloha martin
