In 1996, computers were routinely beating GM's at blitz.  At the last Aegon
tournament, which I believe was 1996, I set up my program, on a 200 mhz P6, and
played against Seirawan and Christiansen, straight 5 0 blitz, with a board.

Seirawan was seeing more and was definitely stronger than my program, although
the score over a short number of games was about even.  Christiensen played
maybe 20 games and won like 2 of them, he got massacred.

If Vincent tries to play 5 0 blitz against Crafty on a P6/200, if he scores 25%
he should regard it as a major victory.
