Uri,

You don't seem to understand the business world.  IBM is a computer company, not
a chess company.  They are in business to make money selling computers.  The
only reason TO keep playing would be to make more money.  But they already had
their PR bonanza, beating the world chess champion.  After that they had no
reason TO keep playing.
