"Up against the 512 processor monster! Deep Sjeng played well and got a nice
attack going, but in the end white also got a passed a-pawn, and the game was
drawn. A nice example of the simple attacking chess Deep Sjeng excels at.
"

The comment is not really exact. After 12. ... c6!, good book move, Diep was out
of Book. If Diep had continued with 13. Rg1 instead of 13. Qb3?, the result
would have been another thing. However, Sjeng was not able to exploit the wasted
time by Diep from moves 13 to 17. On fact, 13. Qb3? begins a short wrong plan in
the queen side when the attack is in the king side.

At the end, several inaccuracies on the Sjeng behalf let Diep to save the game.
