Go up one level in this thread


I may be wrong, but I thought that IBM was speaking about working with Kasparov
for future chess projects and even supported a web page for him. After Kasparov
accused IBM of being naughty, talk of any projects went the way of the web page.
I do think IBM was ready to continue. If IBM were a true sportsman it would give
Kasparov a rematch. But, like Bill Gates, IBM is not a sports entity. But if IBM
was interested in the project it had begun, it should have continued. It really
didn't prove what many people think it did prove. But it got the win and lots of
publicity. LET THE FIGHT GO ON!
