I think that Kasparov hates IBM/DB, and has some involvement with the DJ guys.
I trust him to play to win, but as for what he says after the match, I wouldn't
give it much weight.

It's not easy to compare DB with anything.  We have a few random games, and
analysis by people who are extremely emotional either way.
