If you look at the info for the 1995 (Hong >>Kong) WCCC, you will find "Deep Thought" playing there...

Fritz played against the same *hardware* that beat us in 1989... but the program no doubt changed somewhat from year to year. But the underlying hardware was the same... and was not changed until the real DB was unveiled just in time for the first Kasparov match. And the next DB hardware (a complete redesign) was barely ready for the 1997 (final) match with Kasparov.
