I don't know. Maybe in recent years his nerves aren't what they used to be. I
imagine the pressure he was under in the 48 game Karpov match was much greater
than this four game computer match, and he handled that quite well. He has
seemed to be a little hesitant, or unsure, always second guessing himself and
trying to double check everything against the computers ever since his loss to
Deep Blue. So maybe you are right, at least in regards to computers.
