Most of us here in CCC agree that in order to find out whether X or Y is stonger takes _a lot_ of games, especially when their strength is close to each other. It's amazing what people think about results of 2.5-1.5, 2-2 or 1.5-2.5, when it comes to human-comps though... And... It's not: -GK doesn't fight for human kind when fighting Fritz -GK doesn't save the human race when he beats the machine 2.5-1.5 -it's not a victory of the machines when Fritz wins 2.5-1.5 -chess is not rendered useless if Fritz wins -etc it is: -it's simply a commercial event with money and product placement at stake -fun to watch -only bearable in ICC with 'set kib 2' -etc GK will play computers in such events as long as there's a sponsor. He doesn't "deserve another chance" or anything like that. Sargon
